Under the National Endowment for the Arts New Public Works Grant Program, the City of Chicago invites licensed architects to compete in a design competition for an Intergenerational Learning Center.

The Intergenerational Learning Center is a prototypical social service center comprised of a Senior Satellite Center, Head Start Classrooms, and Grand Family Homes, which is a Chicago program providing dwelling units for adults over 60 years old who have custody of their grandchildren. The center will serve as a model for care taking of the elderly and the young, as well as a place for children to learn from their elders and for seniors from the next generation. The center must be designed to meet Universal Design Criteria for barrier-free learning and living opportunities for people of varying abilities.

The open-call portion of the competition is open to licensed architects and architectural firms. A panel of jurors will select five architects on January 27th, 2003. Each of the five architects will be given an honorarium of $15,000 plus a travel stipend to prepare a model, schematic plans and elevations of the proposed facility and surrounding landscape. The five competing architects will be required to participate in a Design Symposium at Archeworks, an alternative design school in Chicago, and present their designs at an Awards Ceremony at the Chicago Architecture Foundation.

One winner will be selected by the Jury in July 2003 to receive an additional $15,000 plus the possibility of entering into an agreement with the Chicago Public Building Commission for full architectural services.

Submission criteria and other information can be found on the Design Competition's official website.
