The Student American Society of Landscape Architects at Texas Tech University would like to invite you to attend WreckShop 2020. The theme for this year's WreckShop is “Broadening the Scope of Landscape Architecture" which will focus on expanding the traditional areas of practice within the field. WreckShop will feature events such as a lecture series, firm expo, social events, and a portfolio review that will allow firms to share their work, network with others, and engage with students.

For the first time ever, WreckShop will be a virtual experience. We invite you, as professionals and alumni, to learn, network, and collaborate with our students and faculty.
