AFC partnered with L’Enfant Montessori in Bethesda to run a hands-on educational project exploring the architecture of cathedrals with two classes of children aged 3–6. Each class enjoyed an engaging presentation followed by a creative building activity in which the students were challenged to construct the tallest structure possible using a limited number of wooden blocks. This playful constraint encouraged them to think about balance, stability, and the ingenuity behind cathedral design.
