Join us for Building Conversations: Architects and Local Leaders, a morning roundtable bringing together local elected officials and members of the design profession for meaningful dialogue about the future of our communities.

Over a light breakfast, we’ll explore how zoning, housing policy, and planning decisions impact affordability, sustainability, walkability, and civic design—and why architects should be at the table when those decisions are made.

This is more than a networking event—it’s an opportunity to influence how our cities grow. Architects and designers are uniquely positioned to help shape equitable, people-centered places, and this conversation is a critical step toward making design a central part of public policy.

Please RSVP to reserve your seat.

Let’s build better communities—together.
