Workshop: Construction
Join the 8000+ People Who Have Helped Build the World’s First Arcology (architecture + ecology)
The principle of learning-by-doing has guided Arcosanti since its inception in 1970. People from all over the world come here to learn in an immersive environment unlike anywhere else. In an Arcosanti Construction workshop, you’ll connect to the majestic High Sonoran Desert of Arizona, the unique architecture, and a culture that lives in both worlds—all while learning new skills and helping create community.
