  • Women in Architecture Committee Meeting (Friday Lunchtime)

    ZOOM

    Join us for a virtual Friday lunchtime gathering with the Women in Architecture Committee. This informal, round-robin meeting offers an opportunity to reconnect, share recent and upcoming events, and explore ways to get involved. Most importantly, it’s a space to support one another in our individual journeys through the field of architecture. Our conversations are guided by the committee’s mission to champion the role of women in the architectural realm: cultivating community, fostering fellowship, advancing initiatives, and expanding outreach. Together, we work to elevate our contributions to the built environment, strengthen networks of support, and advocate for fair and equitable representation and leadership within the profession. We’ll also share opportunities to help shape and support upcoming programs and events. Facilitated by: Erin Sharp Newton, M.Arch, Assoc. AIA, Chair, Women in Architecture Committee Format: Round-robin discussion Location: Zoom (see RSVP link below) We hope you can make it!

  • Women in Architecture Committee Planning Session

    Attention WIA Committee Members! Please mark your calendars and join us for a September Women in Architecture Committee planning meeting as we look ahead to end-of-year programming and 2027 priorities. This is an opportunity to step back from individual initiatives and think collectively about how we support one another within the profession, how we can further strengthen our impact, and how we can work together to build a more connected and sustainable community—both in the present and into the future. We will be exploring key areas including our direction and purpose, how we navigate clearer pathways from participation to leadership, moving from surviving to thriving, strategically managing professional work/life balance, identifying skills and development needs, and what systems or practices we need so our efforts can continue and build over time. We hope you’ll join us! Erin Sharp-Newton, M.Arch, Assoc. AIAChair, Women in Architecture
