  Join the Corporate Architects and Public Architects for a Networking Reception at the Convention
And support the AIAS Freedom by Design program to boot
The AIA Committee of Corporate Architects and Facility Management and the AIA Public Architects Committee invite you to join them on May 15, 6:30-8:30 p.m., for an evening of networking and fun at the South Boston Seaport District's newest event facility, Lighthouse II. The building—by Brennan Beer Gorman Architects and Brennan Beer Gorman Monk Interior of New York City—has striking views of Boston Harbor and the surrounding skyline. This reception supports the Freedom by Design program, so come hear about the great things the American Institute of Architecture Students is achieving. Enjoy hors d'oeuvres, an open bar, and the excitement of door prize drawings. To register, visit the AIA convention Web site.
