ZLI Sustainable Design Grants

Kenneth A. Mitchell Extended Family Design Grants

ZLI seeks to encourage consideration of natural light, wildlife conservation and animal welfare to benefit people’s every day lives. Kenneth A. Mitchell, a generous actor and award winning landscape architect, provides a model for our recipients to put family first and accommodate life in their designs.

For 2020, this program will focus on giving twelve $120 grants to high school students in landscape and architectural design, at the outset of projects. The purpose is to align work and study with ZLI Campaigns, that each include attention to one animal class, one theme along with an international dialogue. At the completion of their work, students will have studied biodiversity accommodation, a community health safety and welfare related architectural issue, and international architectural examples (historical and contemporary) to further their sensitivity and understanding while giving focus to their careers.

Applications are accepted by providing information following these guidelines: ZLI SD Kenneth A Mitchell Extended Family Grant Application Guidance. The application deadline for this year’s cycle was 1 July 2020.
