The spring 2020 SCIAME lecture series at Spitzer includes a full line-up of lectures, symposia, and special events that highlight our commitment to climate, environmental, and social justice. Under the broad umbrella of “Climate Justice: Time to Think, Talk and Make Change,” we’ve put together a truly global series of speakers. All lectures are free, open to the public, and held in the Bernard and Anne Spitzer School of Architecture Sciame Auditorium. NYSED and AIA Continuing Education Credit for registered New York architects is available.
