AIA Blue Ridge

Did you know that today, March 26th, is Equal Pay Day? It marks how far into 2026 a woman must work just to match what a man earned in 2025, and the gap is even wider for women of color, mothers, disabled women, and LGBTQIA+ workers.

Since we’re still waiting for that gap to close, we are back for one more little sarcastic celebration. We’re hosting an “[un]Happy Hour” to turn a frustrating stat into a great networking opportunity!

Our newly formed BR Women in Design group will be in attendance to chat about initiatives and ways to get involved. AECOM is officially sponsoring the fun, which means your first drink is on the house.

Come hang out, meet your fellow designers, and celebrate the incredible talent we have here in the Roanoke Valley.

The Details:

When: Tuesday, March 31st
Where: Well Hung Vineyard, Roanoke, VA
Time: 4-6pm

Let's get together to talk shop and toast to the day we can finally just call this a "Happy Hour."

Congratulations to our AIA Blue Ridge Past President Mrs. Amanda Cervantes on her new journey 🙏🙏🤩

It’s finally November and that means it’s almost time for our Annual Meeting!

Join us next Thursday, November 9, 2023 from 5:30 to 7:30 PM at The Gish House in Old SW. We’ll start off with dinner from a local restaurant, have a presentation about the year from our current President Nick Wade, and also celebrate the winners of our ADU competition. We can’t wait to see you there!
