MAKING HISTORY IN MARCH...
In the midst of Women's History Month, the duo of Yvonne Farrell and Shelley McNamara of Dublin-based Grafton Architects have won the Pritzker Prize, only the fourth and fifth women to do so since Zaha Hadid became the first in 2004.
The EKC has a busy month ahead with the KET Telefund and AIA KY Board Meeting and EKC Happy Hour coming up!

Did you know? AIA Member Benefits!
|
AIA Architect Action Center
Congress recognizes that architects are vital to crafting public policy solutions that impact their constituents. Use the
AIA Architect Action Center
to directly message your Member of Congress. The more architects who weigh in, the more effective our collective influence will be to positively impact these and other important issues facing the profession, our businesses, and the communities we serve.
Why is this beneficial to me? Many members are looking for ways to be more engaged in policy that matters to them. The Architect Action Center is a great way to identify important issues that are being considered in current policy. Particularly timely with the recent Nashville tornadoes is a
resilience act
to pass federal public policies that enhance and expand the ability of architects to help their communities pre- and post-disaster.
(*Each month we'll share a potentially unknown and relevant AIA National resource offered to you free with your membership that you may not be taking advantage of!*)
