*Spotlight: The League Mentorship’s mid-year gathering* In January, 125 mentors and mentees gathered to connect and discuss the multifaceted nature of preservation in the built environment for the cohort’s mid-year gathering, hosted by @pbdwarchitects and supported by the @jenrettefoundation. Participants spent an evening at the firm with staff-led reviews of preservation-focused projects such as Powerhouse Arts and the Palace Theater. Not familiar with the Mentorship program? Each year, we pair public architecture school students and New York-based built environment professionals for one-on-one advising, mutual learning, and intergenerational community building during the academic year. Want to get involved? The next call for mentors will be announced in July. You can support the League Mentorship and our commitment to the next generation of architects and designers by giving to the Next Generation initiative directly or by becoming a member of the League.
