The Buildings That Built Us
How Architecture Shapes Society
Wednesday, June 24
6:00pm - 7:00pm
New Tampa Regional Library
Jeri Zelinski Community RoomIn this talk, we explore the dynamic relationship between architecture and culture, from the founding era to the present, analyzing how structures have embodied our evolving identity.
Over the past 250 years, architecture has profoundly shaped American society. The presentation concludes by examining why architectural preservation matters—when we lose historic buildings, we lose irreplaceable evidence of our collective memory and future generations lose the capacity to understand the origins of the place they call home.
Recommended for Adults. Registration Recommended.
