THE CHAPTER GIVES AWARDS IN FOUR AREAS OF PRACTICE:
The Milton Grigg Award is the highest award bestowed on a member architect, to honor a distinguished, sustained, body of accomplishments. Award winner’s work spans the spectrum of the profession and transcends the scope of normal professional activities.
The Chapter Honors are given to members of the Central Virginia Chapter of the AIA who have distinguished themselves in design, practice, education, in service to the profession, or as a “citizen architect”. This Honor can serve as an accolade for the work of an entire career, or as recognition of the current accomplishments of a younger leader. Up to three awards may be bestowed each year.
The Community Service Award is the Chapter award honoring an individual or organization that has made significant contributions to the built environment or the public’s awareness of the built environment within Central Virginia.
The Young Activist in Architecture Award is awarded in recognition of the key role architects play in shaping our communities, and in particular, the energy with which young professionals are engaging in community activism. The award seeks to honor individuals who have demonstrated exceptional leadership and made significant contributions to their community early in their careers. Nominees must be AIA members in good standing for less than 10 years.
