Bartlett School of Architecture Society: Events Officer(s)

Hey I’m Sara, I’m on the Msci Arch programme.

I’m that organised friend. You know the one who keeps a comprehensive catalogue of the latest hotspots in their notes app, the one who checks in with everyones schedule and plans the week before; the one who always seems to know what exhibitions are on; the one you can rely on to hook you up with a place or a guy who knows someone who knows someone who can get your job done; the one who will make it work because they’ve always had a plan B, sometimes even C.

I’m also the persistent one. I won’t stop at hurdles to get what I set out for. 

And I’m also the friend who gets you,

Who understands that architecture school can be gruelling and that fun events are very much a necessity. Whether it be organising, debates or ‘in conversation with’s’, dinner party evenings, themed parties or trips and visits..

Let’s make use of our institutions connections and our students curiosity 

If you vote for me for Events Officer I will use my passion to plan and to organise radical and enjoyable events for us all. 

Your Friend,

Sara

I'm Maisy, a 2nd year studying Bsc Architecture. As someone who spent their entire first year of architecture halfway across the world, I understand the mental toll that feeling isolated and separated can cause students. We're in a unique place where although a majority of our time is spent surrounded by other students, we dedicate endless hours to working that it's easy to forget what life outside architecture is like. Therefore, I strongly believe in the value of establishing an environment where people can come together through meaningful and relaxing events to establish a community beyond the studio. 

If elected, I aim to run a variety of small regular activities and larger end of term events catered to students across the Bartlett that can provide a short break from our hectic schedules. I'm excited to help people create a stronger work-life balance that I often struggled to maintain through interactive field trips (not only related to architecture), activities like much needed coffee/snack breaks that can easily fit within a busy day of work, and other social events/workshops that encourage students to get to know people outside their program or even beyond the Bartlett. 

The society has a huge potential to improve the mental health and wellbeing of students and I hope as an events officer, I can help decrease some of the immense stress and pressure a lot of us face to make spending all day at the Bartlett a more fun and enjoyable experience!
