DXD DAY 2023
Design by Diversity Day (Norma Merrick Sklarek) 2023
The DxD Day Block Party was hosted on SCI-Arc’s campus on March 25th, 2023. The free all day event celebrated inclusivity in design-related professions by providing a wide range of activities and modes of engagements between students, educators, and professionals to share information, resources, and excitement for all aspects of design!
The event celebrated Norma Merrick Sklarek, one of the first African American women architects in the United States and also one of the first African- American female architects to be licensed in California.
Often called the “Rosa Parks of architecture”, her intelligence, talent, and tenacity allowed her to overcome racism and sexism and become a prominent architect and a leader in the progression. (Pioneering Woman.org)
