AIA Lunch-N-Learn
Clearwater public art program
AIA Tampa Bay and The Clearwater Public Art will offer an educational, public art experience presented in the AIA Tampa Bay's Continuing Education Program's “Lunch-and-Learn” format. This program is worth two CE Credits.
The event will feature presentations by two artists as a joint effort between the City’s Public Art outreach offerings and the AIA’s Continuing Education program. Christopher Still, whose works are on display from the Florida Governor’s Mansion to the Smithsonian, has recently completed commissions for the Florida House of Representatives and the Tampa International Airport. He will present a talk entitled “Timing is Everything,” a discussion of his recent commissions and his work with the architects and patrons of those projects.
Ulli Kampelmann, a German emigrant and architectural glass artist, has worked extensively throughout Germany and Western Europe for individuals, governments and corporations, and is now developing a new studio in Clearwater. She will speak on the history and modern techniques of architectural art and design, and the use of glass and light in architectural projects.
Join us on April 25th from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at Ruth Eckerd Hall. Admission, including a buffet lunch, is $15 for AIA members and $20 for non-members and guests; RSVPs online here or call the Chapter Office at 813-229-3411.
