2027 MGMC Student Workshop & Competition Kick-Off
The Michael G. Meyers Competition (MGMC) Committee will announce the 2027 design challenge at the workshop.
Michael G. Meyers Design & Scholarship Competition is an annual high school ideas competition with an emphasis on creative problem-solving and graphic presentation. MGMC is sponsored by the Architecture Center Houston Foundation, the Houston Chapter of AIA, and local architectural firms and affiliates.
The Competition Committee hosts a workshop to help the students learn basic architectural design skills, understand the competition requirements and meet the client. While students attend the workshop, teachers and parents are welcome to attend an informational session about the program.
Projects are due May 7, 2027 and the winners will be announced at the awards ceremony.
All Houston area high school students are eligible to participate regardless of class affiliation or age. Students are requested to enter only once per year as either a member of a team or as an individual. Teachers and Counselors are encouraged to promote this scholarship competition.
