ACE Graduate, Cameron Mack, Honored by NOMA
ACE Graduate, Cameron Mack, Honored by NOMA Cameron Mack, who attends Howard University, has joined the Cooper Carry design firm for the 2023 summer fellowship cohort. Continuing to not only champion but provide pathways to academic and professional advancement, the National Organization of Minority Architects (NOMA) celebrates another fellowship cohort of young designers. The NOMA Future Faces (NFF), formerly known as the NOMA Foundation Fellowship, recognizes 13 architecture students and graduates for this 2023 cohort as they engage in a two-month-long summer fellowship. These fellowships are “hosted at leading architecture firms across the country where fellows engage in design research and benefit from firm mentorship,” explains NOMA. “In an industry where only two percent of licensed architects in the United States identify as Black, the NFF plays a crucial role in providing valuable professional experience to underrepresented students.” Since the organization’s inaugural cohort in 2020, the group has worked with 96 fellows and has helped place them at 88 firms for mentorship. What’s even more impressive is the number of colleges and universities represented throughout the fellowship’s existence. To date, there have been a total of 77 architecture schools represented from the U.S. and nearly 100 total fellowships offered. Read more here.

ACE 1st Trades Day
ACE 1st Trades Day On Tuesday, May 16, ACE students and mentors participated in our first Trades Day at the Finishing Trades Institute. Students were able to tour the facility and participate in many hands-on activities related to the trades. Participants learned about the importance of following safety protocols in a work environment and were able to speak with many of FTI’s instructors. Students also were able to try their hands at hanging wallpaper, painting a wall, setting glass into a frame, and walking on stilts! Many thanks to FTI for providing our students with an exceptional experience!
