Marquis Studios, an organization that introduces the arts into schools, brought students from Brooklyn elementary school P.S. 270 to tour Pratt's Brooklyn campus at the end of last semester. Founded by Pratt Trustee David Marquis, Marquis Studios most recently has been offering its pupils an architecture program taught by Pratt alumna Anne deVere (B. Arch. ’88) and funded by the JPMorgan Chase Foundation. 

Marquis and deVere led 90 fourth- and fifth- graders on a tour of the School of Architecture, the Juliana Curran Terian Design Center, and other locations around campus. 

The tour was followed by a question-and-answer session in Higgins Hall auditorium with Marquis, Pratt President Thomas F. Schutte, and Undergraduate Architecture Chair Erika Hinricks.
