About us.

The AIA|DC Emerging Architects Committee (EAC) promotes education, leadership development, and community involvement among, architecture school graduates, emerging architects, Associate AIA members, and architects licensed for 10 years or less.

We encourage the next generation of architects to start leading the industry by heading committees, organizing events, participating in workshops, and attending our events.​

The committee has four major objectives:

• PROVOKE and talk about the future of the profession

• ADVOCATE for emerging architects

• OUTREACH to other Architects, AIA members, associated disciplines, and the community

• MENTOR the next generation of architects.

We meet in person the second Wednesday of every month and organize additional events and programs throughout the year.
