JOIN US FOR A SERIES OF TOWN HALLS
In response to COVID-19, AIA Seattle has been adapting to the changing needs of our partners and members. One of our priorities includes finding new ways for our community to co-create, share knowledge, and support one another. We know that your professional and personal lives are being deeply affected by this situation.
To help unite our community around this crisis, we are putting on a series of Town Halls immediately. Our goal is to provide a platform for discussion and resource sharing among different segments of our chapter. Additionally, AIA Seattle hopes to determine any unmet needs and where we might be able to help. Each Town Hall will be up to an hour long and facilitated by a combination of representatives from our Staff, Board, and Steering Committees.
We hope you’ll join us.
