Interior Architecture Students Enhancing Animal Sanctuary's 设施

爱博手机登录 School of Architecture (MUSOA) 是与 亚瑟的英亩 Animal Sanctuary 和 University Gear Shop (UGS) in a groundbreaking initiative to enhance the sanctuary's facilities by increasing capacity for the rescue, creating an all-season center for animal rehabilitation, and creating a multi-purpose space for education. The partnership with Marywood allows interior architecture students to play a pivotal role in helping Arthur’s Acres renovate the farm, while expanding their education.

Third-year interior architecture students will be embarking on a semester-long project to help with renovations and expansion to Arthur’s Acres. At the end of the semester, 32 students will deliver a comprehensive, multi-phase plan to enhance the existing facilities and create a state-of-the-art barn tailored to animals with special needs. Students will not only gain real world experience, but learn about the importance of choosing cruelty-free and environmentally friendly options that will hopefully impact decisions they will make throughout their careers.

“Students strive to enrich lives and to inspire constructive change in the world. Their dedication for compassionate architecture serves as an influence for good in the lives of others 和 world we inhabit, and this aligns perfectly with the vision of Arthur’s Acres to serve and educate,” 玛丽亚·麦克唐纳, MUSOA founding faculty member.

Arthur’s Acres is dedicated to rescuing animals that have been abused, exploited, or discarded. “We rehabilitate the animals we care for through patience, 爱, 和尊重,托德·弗里德曼指出, executive director and founder of the Parksville, N.Y.-based animal sanctuary.

The three partners will embark on this journey of transformation in the coming months, sharing their progress on 社交媒体. “Our goal is to leverage our expertise in marketing, 社交媒体, and technology to share the compelling story of 亚瑟的英亩 and MUSOA’s campaign,威廉·邦尼说, UGS executive vice president.
