Pardon the long report! It is wonderful to see the chapter growing in this 150th Anniversary year of the American Institute of Architects. We welcome each new member and encourage participation by all those who take a deep interest in the design community in New York and beyond; click here to learn more about our member categories and benefits.

On March 15, 2007 we’ll be having a special welcome reception for new members starting at 5:30 pm; we hope you’ll come and meet committee chairs, board members, staff and others who can help to make your membership create a lasting difference.

Reminder to those who have not yet renewed: All 2007 dues should be paid or in process. Unrenewed individuals will miss membership benefits after March 31, 2007. Email Suzanne Mecs if you need a replacement renewal notice or special assistance with your renewal.
