We invited The American Institute of Architects (AIA) leaders 2024 President Kimberly Dowdell and CEO Lakisha Ann Woods, CAE to engage with members in Hawaii and they joined us last week! 2024 AIA Hawaii State Council President Reid Mizue and 2024 AIA Honolulu President Wayne Goo welcomed them to Oahu. Our first stop was a ride on Skyline with Jon Nouchi from the City and County of Honolulu Department of Transportation Services sharing all the complexities of bringing this infrastructure giant to fruition through community engagement, history and culture of place, and costs of constructing in our remote location. While riding, we had a chance to share the Chief Architect initiative with Andrew Sugg, Chief of Staff to Mayor Rick Blangiardi. We also discussed how architects can contribute to achieving Oahu's climate action goals with Matthew Gonser and Ben Sullivan from the City and County of Honolulu Office of Climate Change, Sustainability and Resiliency. Mahalo to the City and County of Honolulu for taking the time to meet with us and hear how architects can be your partners in progress.

Be your authentic self 🏳️🌈 While #PrideMonth is ending, we had a full schedule of sessions and events at #AIA24 related to the LGTBQIA+ community and how to best support their needs as designers and community members. At Pride Happy Hour at AIA24, we asked attendees, “What does being out in architecture mean to you?” This question was inspired by the book “Out in Architecture,” 📕 which is dedicated to bringing visibility to LGBTQIA+ architects + designers, propelling conversation into institutional change.

Meet the city architect of Kansas City, Missouri! 🎉 #FutureFocused presents Rukhsana A. Reyes, AIA ⤵️ Prior to joining Kansas City in April 2023, Rukhsana was a Capital Project Manager for Los Angeles County, Department of Public Works, overseeing multi-million-dollar capital projects. She has 20 years of experience in the field and has worked on commercial, residential, education, health care, and public projects. We ❤️ city architects.

For the last several years, we've partnered with the United States Conference of Mayors to strengthen our relationship with local civic leaders. Last weekend at #Mayors24, AIA EVP/CEO Lakisha Ann Woods, CAE, and 2024 President Kimberly Dowdell, AIA, NOMAC, met with over 15 mayors to encourage the hiring or appointment of architects in their cities. 📢❗ We encourage local AIA chapters and members to meet with their mayors and civic leaders to discuss community needs and hire or appoint a city architect to address those needs. #AIA #Architecture #PublicPolicy AIA Kansas City
