SOUx at home is the International School of Architecture for Children7 to 12 years, the first in Italy, the second in the world.

The name of the school pays homage to one of the greatest contemporary architects, Japanese architect Sou Fujimoto.

WHY SOUx
The workshops are structured with a didactic methodology based on learning by doing and with a playful and interactive approach; they foster knowledge through action, direct involvement and the development of skills and attitudes, making learners protagonists of their own learning process and promoters of initiatives for the city through didactic outings on the city and provincial territory; public events such as exhibitions of the works produced.
WHEN SOUx
Workshops with children take place every Saturday from 16:45 to 18:45. The workshops are run by the team and local professionals, and once a month by a nationally and/or internationally renowned external lecturer.
WHERE SOUx
The workshops take place in the artistically and architecturally significant historic Sala delle Colonne, located in the ancient cloister of Sant'Agostino in Piazza Mazzini. Some workshops are held in other historical buildings or in open spaces.
