The American Institute of Architects Los Angeles Chapter (AIA/LA) will hold its annual Design Awards Ceremony Thurs., Nov. 30, from 5:30 to 11 p.m. The event serves as the organization’s biggest fundraiser of the year and will honor the 2023 Design Award winners, Next LA winners and board of director’s honorees.
Having recently relocated its headquarters from the nearby Wiltern Building to West Adams — the historic neighborhood just a bit south of our Mid-Wilshire communities — AIA/LA will hold its fundraiser at its new home, a former bank building at 4450 W. Adams Blvd., at the corner of Victoria Avenue.
The large new space also will house the group’s new nonprofit, Architecture for Communities Los Angeles (ACLA). The new organization encourages local students to learn about architecture. The new facilities that ACLA and AIA/LA are sharing will enable AIA/LA to expand its offerings and continue providing programming for advocacy, sustainability and professional development.
The Los Angeles chapter is one of the three largest chapters of the American Institute of Architects — a group representing the professional interests of architects since 1857. For tickets, visit tinyurl.com/2p85fscm.
