“Architecture in Community program provides lectures and tours to educate the public. Architecture Month events included Defining Modern, an event in collaboration with Drake University. The Eat Drink Architecture pub crawl was offered, as was Architecture on the Move and summer walking tours.We provided tours for many groups including YPC, Ruan, Principal Financial Group, Tero International, DBIA, PEO International, and more. We promoted our walking tour app for self-guided tours, using brochures at the Des Moines Airport and CVB. We lauched the Community Enhancement Through Architecture Design awards program, recognizing entities outside the profession of architecture that have had a positive impact on the quality of life in Iowa through their support of architecture. We facilitated a motor coach tour to Dubuque, Iowa, partnering with local preservation experts who provided tours of the citys rich architectural heritage and how it is being given new life.”

“ARCHITECTURE IN SCHOOLS seeks to instill awareness and appreciation of architecture in Iowa public school students. In July IAF offered Adventures in Architecture summer day camp for kids age 10 through 13 in collaboration with the Des Moines Social Club. The students got to visit architecture, engineering and construction firms where they interacted with professionals. The camp concluded with a tour through the dome of the Iowa State Capitol, and later presentations from the students to parents and interested adults, and an exhibition at the Iowa Center for Architecture. Elementary school tours were held with the help of volunteer architects.”

“Mission Statement We bring together architects and designers, educators and their students, and other enthusiasts to improve the quality of life in the state of Iowa through architecture and design. We engage communities and citizens to create positive changes in the built environment in Iowa.”
