Jane Frederick, FAIA, president at AIA, said, “AIA has been closely monitoring directives from city, county, and state officials, as well as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization throughout this crisis. The health and safety of our members, colleagues, exhibitors and speakers is paramount and we feel compelled to postpone the annual conference to minimize the risk to our valued participants and partners. By making this decision in advance, we also hope to minimize any stress or inconvenience for our participants and partners.”

AIA is exploring options to reschedule the event and will update members. AIA is issuing refunds to registrants. For more information, visit conferenceonarchitecture.com.
