National Saturday Club Programme

We are now seeking participants for our National Saturday Club Programme (Un) Building, a new and bold programme for 13- to 16-year olds developed in collaboration with the RIBA and LIFT (Leading Inclusive Futures Through Technology).

(Un) Building is a free 20-week course for young people in Hackney and Islington from underrepresented communities in architecture and will be delivered on Saturday afternoons (2pm to 5pm) from the 7 January to the 27 May at the LSA in Haggerston and other locations across the city. The programme explores new ways of designing with sustainability in mind, considering how spaces can be built, unbuilt and adapted to allow for new uses in an age of Climate Emergency. Our course will study exemplary local retro-fit projects, re-introducing the built environment as a rich source of inspiration, explore the possibilities of working with natural materials and the opportunities that spatial designers have to positively influence their surroundings.

Our programme introduces foundational climate literacy and presents the practice of spatial design and city-making as a collective endeavour. Alongside introducing a wide range of experts, the cohort will undertake a design and build brief, engaging with local community groups to help shape their final proposal which will be realised in the Spring of 2023. Through emphasising craft and making, critical engagement with context and environment, and collaborative practice, the course will inspire young people to explore and develop relevant and resilient forms of space-making.

The National Saturday Club offers young people a unique opportunity to explore subjects they love for free, to discover new talents, meet new people, and explore future study and career possibilities. In addition, Club members will participate in National Saturday Club Masterclasses with leading industry professionals, the Summer Show where Saturday Clubs nationwide exhibit their work in a public exhibition, and a Graduation Ceremony for Club members to celebrate their achievements.
