Artist in the Classroom! Diego Gutierrez

Local architect Diego Gutierrez stopped by the 6th and 7th grade art class and gave us a talk on architecture. He talked about the purpose of buildings, and the art of design. He talked about what architects do for a living, and brought in some books and samples to look at. Mr. Gutierrez is teaching a Junior Architect Design workshop at Berkshire South during our spring break coming up.
