This Wednesday, May 16th, 2012 the Architectural Heritage Center will be hosting 2 free showings of the film Modern Views: A Conversation on Northwest Modern Architecture.

Showings are at:
6 pm and 7:30 pm
43 minutes
Admission is free
AHC address : 701 SE Grand Avenue Portland, OR 97214
From the Architectural Heritage Centers Website:
A studio/216 film presented by the University of Washington Department of Architecture in the College of Built Environments
Focused mainly on the works of “Northwest School” architects Arne Bystrom, Wendell Lovett, Gene Zema, Ralph Anderson, and Fred Bassetti. The architects discuss how the Pacific Northwest landscape and climate guided their design decisions and choice of building materials.
