Join us in CELEBRATING AIA Grand Rapids Architects and their contributions to our communities. With this as our cornerstone, we are creating the foundation for building recognition of the profession and our clients through a stronger promotion of Architecture to the public.

This year’s event will be held on Wednesday, October 30th at the GLC Live at 20 Monroe, 11 Ottawa Avenue NW, Grand Rapids, MI 49503.

The mission of AIA Grand Rapids is to unite and amplify the voices of the architectural profession to empower and inspire our members and communities. In support of this mission, the program celebrates our chapter architects and their work, promotes the profession, honors clients, and acknowledges contributions to the construction industry.
