Make a Mark Roanoke - Blacksburg is a 12-hour design and development marathon benefiting local non-profits. Last year we were fortunate enough to serve 12 non-profits in this area and, in the spirit of Ut Prosim, we would love your help with assisting even more.
This event brings together student and professional designers and developers to create pro-bono work for deserving non-profits in the Roanoke - Blacksburg region. This work can range from websites to logos.
The event gives designers an opportunity to create unique, meaningful work and develop a motivated and inspired design community. During the event, designers have 10 hours to complete as much of their project as possible. They will work within teams and with nonprofit representatives that will stop by mid-day to check in with the team.
We welcome everyone to apply - from designers to developers, students to professionals.
Applications will be open until January 31, 2016. The event will take place on March 19, 2016 from 8:00am to 8:00pm at Rackspace in Blacksburg, Virginia. more

Dear Prospective CASA Participant,
Cathi and I would like to to inform you about our CASA Mexico Study Abroad Program. We have begun organizing the program for next summer's session and we hope you might like to join us. We know that it will give you a unique opportunity to immerse yourself into the architecture, culture, art and history of Mexico, and a focused attention on your personal goals and perspective on your life as a creative person.
I have linked (below) information about CASA, the Center for Architecture Sustainability + Art. The exact dates will be confirmed soon, but are tentatively set from May 26 through July 1, 2016. Please find six (6) pages of information including the program description, itinerary, accommodations and facilities, information about San Miguel de Allende and Mexico City, as well as information about ourselves, since we head the program. I have also included an online link to a magazine article with an accompanying slide show about CASA.
San Miguel de Allende is a beautiful colonial town, declared a National Treasure by Mexico in 1926 and designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2008. In addition, "Conde Nast Traveler" magazine voted San Miguel de Allende the number one city in Mexico and the 7th best city in the world as a travel destination. We have also attached below a 12 minute video entitled "El Corazon de Mexico" (The Heart of Mexico) about San Miguel de Allende. This video gives an excellent overview of this extraordinary town, highlighting its historic architecture and diverse culture.
The cost of the CASA program will be finalized within the next couple of months, but we estimate it to be approximately $3,700, which includes lodging, two meals per day, entry fees and ground transportation. Air fare and travel insurance are not included.
Cathi and I look forward to the possibility of having you as part of our program in Mexico next summer.
Please let us know if you have any questions.
All the best,
Steven
Steven House AIA Architect
