SIAF+DRT+NOMA NW | SOCIAL HOUR at The Center for Architecture and Design

Seattle International Architecture Forum, Diversity Roundtable, and NOMA | nw  joined efforts to organize long time waited in-person Happy Hour Series. Our next event will be hosted by The Center for Architecture and Design located at downtown Seattle.

The Social Happy Hour events are casual ones encouraging the design community to gather together at informal environment, build new connections and explore the topics of the day. Snacks and drinks are provided as well.

This year we would like to challenge everyone including our hosts of the events to have discussions around the 2023 AIA Seattle Mission, Vision, Imperatives, and Annual Priorities:

Vision: We envision a culture of design that fosters equitable, resilient, thriving communities
Mission: We champion the central role of architects in creating and sustaining a better built environment.

Values
• Demonstrate and promote design excellence.
• Represent our collective design voice, while valuing individual contributions.
• Speak up on important issues, convene courageous conversations and embrace risk when it serves
our mission.
• Advocate for opportunity, diversity, and inclusion in practice and process.
• Consider future generations and elevate sustainability to safeguard our Northwest landscape,
community and climate.
• Foster cross-industry connections and partnerships to magnify our collective impact.

Imperatives
• Justice, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion: AIA Seattle is committed to identifying, naming, and
dismantling systemic discrimination within the architecture community in order to nurture
universal inclusion and fairness in the built environment, for the communities we impact.
• Housing: AIA Seattle is committed to the development of plentiful, quality, diverse, and sustainable
housing options for current and future residents of Seattle.
