The William Hart Scholarship was established in 2021 in partnership with Carleton Hart Architecture (CHA) and the Architecture Foundation of Oregon (AFO). Hart’s resume reflects his passion for community-oriented projects that are sensitive to historically under-represented and marginalized stakeholders, including multiple affordable housing developments and community centers across the Portland Metro Area and SW Washington. Hart stepped into a new role in March 2021 to found Hart Development – a real estate development firm focused on serving the African American community.

To honor Hart’s enduring legacy that lives on in CHA, the firm continues to push for equity in the profession and the communities they serve. The vision for this scholarship is to expand that work, remove barriers to entry into the profession, and support future architects.

This scholarship is also an opportunity for students to engage with CHA. Scholarship recipients will be invited to visit the CHA office and meet staff with the hope of forming an ongoing relationship with the firm. While optional, involvement with the firm is meant to offer support and professional mentorship to recipients of this award.

AFO and CHA encourage Oregon architecture students who identify as Black, Indigenous, and/or a person of color to apply for the William Hart Scholarship. An essay and portfolio of work must represent the candidate’s career goals and desire to make a positive impact on the architecture profession.

Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated each year from September 15 to October 15. It began as a week-long celebration in 1968 and has since expanded to a month, which provides more time to properly recognize the significant contributions Hispanic/Latino Americans have made in the United States.

During this month, celebrate by taking the time to learn more about Latino identity and historical legacies that enrich communities and continue to shape our country.
