NCAS President Justin Shubow: How Classical Architecture Can Unite Americans at an Otherwise Divided Time

Can classical architecture unite Americans in an otherwise divided time? National Civic Art Society president Justin Shubow said "yes" in a lecture earlier this year.

He explored how timeless design rooted in ancient precedents--and employed by the Founding Fathers--bolsters democracy, unity, and civic identity.

The talk was part of the conference "A New Path for Beauty" co-sponsored by the Roger Scruton Legacy Foundation and NCAS that took place at Cambridge University in the UK.

The other panelists were María Fernanda Sánchez, architect of Cayalá, a new classical city in Guatemala; and the Rt. Hon. Michael Gove, former UK Housing Secretary, now editor of The Spectator. Samuel Hughes moderated.
