STILL NEED VOLUNTEERS

SAVE THE DATE: AIA LA Annual Conference on Architecture 2022 

October 6-7, 2022. The Lodge at Gulf State Park.

CALL FOR PLANNING VOLUNTEERS:

A representative from each chapter/section across the state is being sought to assist in the planning of this year’s conference. What a great networking opportunity! (not to mention a great way to gain insight, ideas, and experience for when Conference is local again, and discounted registration!) Email to sign-up HERE. 

Study Materials in Overdrive

30 NEW E-BOOKS were added to AIA Louisiana’s Digital Library. Many are books recommended by the Associates & Emerging Professionals Committee and others are recommended reading titles by ArchDaily. If you have not yet taken advantage of this member benefit (no charge to current AIA Louisiana members), do so now by going to: https://aialouisiana.overdrive.com. When logging in, “card number” is your AIA membership number.

SUPPLEMENTAL DUES TRANSITION

As part of dues structure transition, the AIA LA Supplemental Dues Taskforce would like to invite current AIA members (licensed architects and intern architects in LA) to participate in one of the sharing/listening sessions being offered over the next couple of months where you can hear more about this topic and ask relevant questions. You can also submit questions prior to the session via email HERE if you wish.

Below are a variety of dates to choose from:

• You only need to register for one as they will all be the same format and information.
• The person in your office that is in charge of dues calculations/payment of those invoices is welcome to attend. Please, simply forward this email to them and ask them to register; preferred that you attend the same one as they do, but not required.
• You’ll notice there is a specific one for university professors. Only issues related to them specifically will be discussed there, so that is only open to them. All others are open to any AIA LA member or personnel responsible for dues payments.

Sessions: All sessions are 8:30-9:30AM CST via Zoom; click the date to register
