TALIESIN

The Chicago Architecture Foundation is able to offer a week-long apprenticeship at Taliesin. This year, six top prize-winning students will be awarded a trip to Frank Lloyd Wright’s School of Architecture in Spring Green, Wisconsin as part of the Newhouse Scholars program. While at Taliesin, students will spend the week working with a mentor on a design project. The 2007 Taliesin Junior Apprentices spent the week designing a 300 square foot dwelling for a site on the beautiful, 600 acre campus.

The Newhouse Scholars follow Frank Lloyd Wright’s model of “learning by doing” and participate in every aspect of life as part of the Taliesin community.

The process of selecting Taliesin apprentices is extremely competitive.

Apprenticeships are open to all Junior and Senior winners of the Newhouse Architecture Competition.
