Join the growing list of your colleagues who educate the public about architecture and design, and attend this year’s conference!

Come to Chicago November 5 -7, and discuss new issues and ideas, share with others who are engaged in architecture and design education of our youth and public, and learn about starting the public dialogue about the built environment.

This year’s gathering will be held in conjunction with the first meeting of the Association of Architecture Organizations (AAO). AAO, which is currently being organized, will launch at the November conference. The mission of AAO will be to foster the development of an alliance of like-minded non-profit organizations who educate the public about architecture and the built environment, and to serve as a forum for national and international dialogue and the sharing of best practices, materials and ideas.

The AAO portion of the conference will be November 5 – 6, 2009, and the A+DEN gathering will be November 6 – 7, 2009. There will be overlap programming on November 6, which will provide a valuable networking opportunity for both groups.

We'll be posting more information about speakers, sessions, and other events as soon as it is available, so be sure to keep checking the site often!

If you are interested in learning more about AAO please contact Jill Perney via email, or at (312)922-3432 x. 260.
