SUMMARY:Bounding Box Architecture: A Comics Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Date & TimeThursday\, April 23\, 2026 (12:30-1:30 p.m.) \n\n\n\n\n\nLocationArchitecture & Urban Planning Building\, Marcus Commons \n\n\n\n\n\nThis workshop is a hands-on introduction to sequential narrative and story-making with students. At a time where bounding boxes are being drawn around faces\, bodies\, and buildings to extract data for AI training\, how might the meta-structure of framing in comics and the graphic arts help us (literally) reframe the built environment around us? What can the format of sequential narrative lend us in troubling times?  \n\n\n\nThis event invites you to attend to the bounding box\, the frame\, and the panel as an actor in architectual representation\, instigating alternate ways of seeing and representing the world. This event will begin with a mini-lecture and introduction to a series of comic works\, followed by an hour of hands-on drawing and conversation. BYO pens and pencils of varying colors and weights. \n\n\n\nBiography\n\n\n\nAmelyn Ng is an architect\, cartoonist\, and Assistant Professor of Architecture at Columbia GSAPP. She has previously taught at the Rhode Island School of Design and Rice University\, and is a registered architect in the State of Victoria\, Australia. Her work contends with relationships between matter and representation\, and seeks alternate narratives to the status quo of building. While her creative practice engages themes of waste\, material economy\, and planetary extraction\, her research examines the socio-technical relations of architectural representation with a focus on entanglements between labor\, technology\, and material conditions.

SUMMARY:Center for Equity Practice & Planning Justice Open House and Symposium

The Center for Equity Practice and Planning Justice (CEPPJ) within UWM’s School of Architecture & Urban Planning\, in partnership with the Milwaukee Community Land Trust\, is hosting a transformative Open House and Symposium dedicated to shaping Milwaukee’s future as a justice-oriented city. \n\n\n\nMilwaukee stands at a pivotal crossroads. As one of the most segregated cities in the United States\, Milwaukee faces a deepening affordable housing crisis that threatens the stability of thousands of families\, particularly in communities of color. The affordable housing crisis is not simply a housing problem. It is a justice problem. \n\n\n\nHousing Justice for Milwaukee: Community Land Trusts\, Equity Strategies\, and the Path to a Justice-Oriented City is not merely a conversation about housing. It is a conversation about power\, community self-determination\, and who gets to call Milwaukee home. Join scholars\, practitioners\, city leaders\, community advocates\, and neighbors as we explore proven\, scalable\, and durable strategies to make affordable housing a lasting reality for Milwaukee’s most vulnerable residents. \n\n\n\n\nRegister by March 31\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSchedule\n\n\n\nWednesday\, April 8\n\n\n\nTimeDescriptionLocation11:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.Lunch & NetworkingAUP 12611:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.CEPPJ Open HouseAUP 22512:30-12:45 p.m.Welcome & Opening RemarksMarcus Commons12:45-1:30 p.m.Panel DiscussionMarcus Commons1:30-1:45 p.m.Q & AMarcus Commons1:45 pm.-2:00 p.m.Closing RemarksMarcus Commons\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPanel Discussion\n\n\n\n\nDr. Kirk HarrisModeratorFounding DirectorCenter for Equity Practice and Planning JusticeBiography\n\n\n\nIan BautistaSenior Director of Civic EngagementGreater Milwaukee Foundation Biography\n\n\n\nLamont DavisExecutive DirectorMilwaukee Community Land Trust Biography\n\n\n\nLatasha HenleyHomeowner of Land Trust propertyBiography\n\n\n\nSam LeichtlingDeputy CommissionerDepartment of City DevelopmentBiography\n\n\n\nErika SandersPresident and CEOMetropolitan Milwaukee Fair Housing CouncilBiography\n\n\n\nBeth Van GorpDirector of Advocacy and Government RelationsMilwaukee Habitat for HumanityBiography\n\n\n\nTeig Whalen-SmithExecutive DirectorCommunity Development AllianceBiography\n\n\n\n\n\nIan Bautista\n\n\n\nSenior Director of Civic EngagementGreater Milwaukee Foundation \n\n\n\nIan B.

Rather than giving up on her dream\, she found the strength to start again. She worked tirelessly to rebuild her finances\, improve her credit\, and strengthen her financial knowledge. \n\n\n\nIn 2025\, with the support of the Community Land Trust\, Latasha’s years of perseverance paid off when she officially became a homeowner. Today\, her three-bedroom home and spacious backyard provide a safe\, joyful place where she can create memories with her grandchildren and continue building a brighter future for her family. \n\n\n\nLatasha’s story is a powerful reminder that with determination\, support\, and opportunity\, dreams of homeownership can become reality.  \n\n\n\n\n\nBeth Van Gorp\n\n\n\nDirector of Advocacy and Government RelationsMilwaukee Habitat for Humanity \n\n\n\nSince 2015\, Beth Van Gorp has been part of the Milwaukee Habitat for Humanity team and is currently the Director of Advocacy and Government Relations\, which is a new position for the organization.

SUMMARY:Productive Frictions
DESCRIPTION:Date & TimeThursday\, November 20\, 2025 (5-6 p.m.) \n\n\n\n\n\nLocationArchitecture & Urban Planning Building\, Marcus Commons \n\n\n\n\n\nFrench 2D will lecture about seeing and making together\, negotiating authorship through collaborative processes that challenge traditional architectural narratives and approaching practice\, research\, and teaching through a situated frame. They will discuss housing\, civic installations and textiles\, all understood as both a process and a product of collective work\, policy change\, formal legibility and playfulness.  \n\n\n\nAs the work shifts back and forth between a series of entangled themes and often contradictory forces close to home\, the lecture will explore excerpts of French 2D’s work through the framing of productive frictions – or as Mckenzie Wark writes about Anna Tsing’s conception of friction “thinking about these antimonies through a study of various competing universals as they get mixed up in local situations.” \n\n\n\nBiography\n\n\n\nAnda FrenchPrinceton University SoA\, Visiting LecturerFrench 2D\, Partner \n\n\n\nJenny FrenchHarvard GSD\, Assistant Professor in Practice of ArchitectureFrench 2D\, Partner \n\n\n\nFrench 2D is a Boston studio founded by Jenny French and Anda French\, AIA. French 2D’s work focuses on uncommon housing types\, found in their cohousing\, compact living\, and adaptive reuse projects. The practice also works on civic installations and exhibitions that call upon the domestic to bring people together for familiar rituals in unfamiliar spaces\, found in furniture\, textiles\, and environments. French 2D has been recognized by numerous awards and publications\, including a P/A Award\, and a Design Vanguard award from Architectural Record. In 2024 French 2D was nominated for the Mies Crown Hall Americas Prize and in 2023 was a Finalist for the Architectural Review’s Emerging Award. Their work has been featured in Domus\, AZURE\, PLOT\, Metropolis\, Monocle\, and The Architect’s Newspaper\, and exhibited widely\, including at MoMA\, the Venice Architecture Biennale\, and in the solo show “House Clothes” at UMASS Amherst. Jenny is an Assistant Professor in Practice at the Harvard GSD and Anda is a Visiting Lecturer at the Princeton SoA.
