Dean's circle

The Dean's Circle is made up of architects, landscape architects and related industry leaders who provide guidance, advice and financial support to the Fay School of Architecture. They share vision and expertise, serve as community advocates and contribute annually to the school's Foundation Fund.

In the fall, the Dean's Circle meets in Fayetteville (so that members may take in a Razorback football game after the event concludes!). In the spring, dean's circle members meet in central Arkansas.

Events feature

Distinguished speakers: We bring you exceptional speakers, from rising stars in the design field to poets, painters and documentary filmmakers.
Private tours of significant buildings and landscapes: Past events have taken place at Garvan Woodland Gardens, Blessings Golf Club, the Keenan TowerHouse, the Mill Building and custom-designed homes and gardens.
Previews of new initiatives at the Fay Jones School: Be the first to learn about new professors and programs.
