AI Art-itecture Makers
Kids imagine it with AI. Then they build it with their hands.
Hands-on enrichment for private elementary schools and homeschool families, where students steer AI as a creative tool, then bring their ideas to life by building.
Every session, three steps
Imagine together
The class calls out ideas and learns to describe them in rich, specific words.
Watch AI respond
On one screen, the teacher (or parent, at home) types the prompts into an AI tool. Students see how changing a word changes the design.
Build it by hand
At the building station, ideas become real. Private school groups build together as teams, and homeschool students build their own with a full kit.
10 weeks. 10 new roles.
Each week students take on a new design role. Private school groups build as teams, and homeschool students build their own projects.

Why I started AI Art-itecture Makers
For years, I've worked with elementary enrichment after-school programs throughout LAUSD, where I developed an architecture program that gets kids designing, building, and solving real problems with their hands. My students weren't just learning about architecture. They were learning to think like designers.
My BFA in Interior Design taught me that good design starts with people. My BA in Psychology taught me how children learn, what keeps them curious, and how confidence grows when they create something of their own.
Kids are growing up surrounded by AI, but most only experience it as something to consume. AI Art-itecture Makers brings my hands-on, design-first approach to AI, so students learn to use it as a creative tool to imagine, build, and test their own ideas.
