Congratulations again to Katie Kangas, AIA, on being one of our two 2023 AIA Minnesota Young Architect Award winners!

Katie Kangas, AIA, founder of Pasque Architecture, works holistically to transform workspace culture, professional practice, and public spaces. Her approach to leadership focuses on sharing stories of colleagues, clients, and communities. Jurors were struck by the sheer volume and impact of her community and AIA volunteer activities, the insights and tools she’s developed for graduates entering the profession, and her growing expertise in historic preservation.

The 2023 Young Architects Award is given by AIA Minnesota to individuals who, in the early stage of their architecture career, have shown exceptional leadership and made significant contributions to the profession.

This year’s winners demonstrated excellence across all criteria and leadership measures: design excellence, practice, education, service, and contributions to the profession. The diversity of their built projects and mentorship of the next generation of designers make them standout leaders in our state and the profession.

Update~ "We Haul For You" movers have been absolutely fabulous in each trailer load of museum and research items moved! We are staging areas of the house that were part of the phase one project and now are getting it organized to its space. Shelving is being finished in the research area and boxes of books are getting organized! We are making it happen!

FYI for everyone that has been watching our Robinson-Stanton House page!!

Phase one of the Robinson-Stanton House is completed and we would love to have you stop in and see all the hard work invested in taking it from a private home to a community home where we will house our artifacts and stories.

Phase one includes the main floor and the 1965 addition that will house the research area. The tour/open house does NOT include the upstairs or the basement. We will wow you with them after they get updates.

This event will be held next Friday and Saturday, August 5th and 6th from 1-5 p.m. This event is free and open to the public.

The address is:
202 2nd Ave. South, Sauk Rapids, Minnesota
(across from Coborn's).
