Member News

Congratulations to GADD Member Bayview Builders for having their project featured in the most recent issue of Annapolis Home Magazine.

GADD Member HD Squared Architects is working to preserve the Burtis House, the last 19th-century waterman's cottage at the City Dock in Annapolis.

The Lighting for Interior Design course at Anne Arundel Community College can be taken for credit or audited. Auditing is the exact same course and cost, but no obligation to complete assignments or take exams. Waivers can be provided to professionals in the field (prerequisites can block access) so they can access the course for registration.

For more details, see the flyer or email jlhaddock@aacc.edu.

GADD Patron Member, Mike Deshaies (Deshaies Electrical Services), has extended an invite to all GADD members to the January 14th NARI Chesapeake Annual Chapter Meeting where he will be inducted as President.
