AGC presented Festival of the Building Arts at the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C., on October 10. The event is designed for children and includes fun construction-related activities, including dry wall finishing, woodworking and nail driving, as well as the opportunity to meet and talk with plumbers, architects and landscape designers.
AGC distributed child-sized hard hats, toy trucks and posters of construction equipment, which were received with excitement by more than 2,000 children. AGC also presented "Safety for the Little Builder," with the help of Justin Rihn, safety manager for Clark Construction.
