Dallas Center for Architecture

In conjunction with our exhibition on the soon-to-open Klyde Warren Park, we are pleased to present this documentary on landscape architecture.

Women are influencing the profession of landscape architecture more today than ever before. Women in the Dirt highlights the work of seven award-winning women who have made their mark in the field: Mia Lerher, Andrea Cochran, Cheryl Barton, Isabelle Greene, Katherine Spitz, Pamela Palmer, and Lauren Melendrez. Though each has a unique body of work, their concerns overlap in the realm of sustainability and enduring design.

Director Carolann Stoney conceived of the idea for this documentary while she herself was studying landscape architecture. Her short film on the subject received the 2009 American Society of Landscape Architects Student Honors Award in Communication.

We will begin the evening with a reception and light refreshments, followed by the screening at 6:30 p.m.  As always, we'll stick around for a few minutes afterwards for a discussion of the film.

$10 donation requested at the door.  To RSVP, send e-mail to info@DallasCFA.com.

The exhibition Bridging the Gap: Klyde Warren Park and its associated programs are supported by a generous grant from The Real Estate Council.
