Host
Institute for Quality Communities at the University of Oklahoma
Oklahoma City, OK
The Institute for Quality Communities (IQC) at the University of Oklahoma College of Architecture was founded in 2008 to bring the power of design to communities across Oklahoma. Over the last decade, architecture students have worked with community leaders in 50 community projects across 28 Oklahoma counties, while IQC’s biennial conference on placemaking attracts 3,000 visitors from 60 Oklahoma counties to learn about improving their communities through design.
IQC will host a session of the Mayors’ Institute on City Design geared toward small and mid-sized cities on November 20-22, 2019.
