The AIA Central Kentucky Chapter is now taking applications for AIA Associate Grants for the year 2017. The Board will also accept applications the Emerging Professionals Grants. This is a continuation of a successful program that gets Architectural Interns and Emerging Professionals active in the Central Kentucky Chapter. For those not familiar with the program, each year the AIA/CKC pays the membership costs for up to ten people to become Associate AIA members and for two licensed architects who have been licensed under 5 years and have never been an AIA member. Grant recipients are expected to be active in the chapter for the year the chapter pays for their membership, then continue their activity in future years and become the next generation of chapter leaders.

AIA Associate grant recipients are asked to serve on one or more of the following committees: Bourbon Blast, Trade Fair, Programs, IDP, Website, House Tour, Urban Design, and Membership(Social).

Additionally ALL grant recipients will be expected to help on the day of the Trade Fair on February 21, 2016 and the day of the House Tour (if scheduled this year).

Current and prospective AIA Associate members are eligible. Applications should be returned by email to pshields@luckett-farley.com by January 10, 2017. Up to ten AIA Associate Grants and two Emerging Professional Grants will be awarded. Questions may be directed to Portia at (502) 585-4181. The applications will be voted on at the January AIA/CKC board meeting.
