Now more than ever, academia must be linked to society by creating School+Community projects. At Fábrica de Ciudad, given the unique moment we are currently living through, we are redoubling our commitment to education and society. For this reason, we have created Factory Fridays, conceived as an online school project featuring guest professors from both Mexico and abroad. From May 15 to July 30, every Friday we will host a session led by prominent Latin American architects who will share their practice and ideas through lectures and dialogues.
