​Architecture Month
​"AIA Spokane Goes Big"

Picture
​Spokane is experiencing a wave of growth in the downtown core.  Our theme for 2018, “AIA Spokane Goes Big”, will highlight the many projects happening across the city. Throughout the month of April, we will show off some of the many projects downtown, from the renovations of the “M” and Ridpath to infrastructure projects like the CSO tanks and Riverfront Park. We have teamed up with ASLA, CSI, DBIA, NCARB, MAS, ASHRAE, the City of Spokane and Spokane Public Schools to offer a wide array of continuing education opportunities. This will culminate with the student design showcase and the AIA design awards on April 26th. We are looking forward to showing our membership and allied partners the working being done to make Spokane an even better city.

We hope you enjoy the many events we have planned!
