The following committees are active in the AIA Chesapeake Bay at this time. Additional participation is welcome. If you are interested, please contact the committee Chair.
Design Awards Committee
The Design Awards Committee promotes and recognizes architectural excellence in the Chesapeake Bay region by holding a design competition each year. The committee solicits entries from all Chapter architects. The participants compose a graphic and written presentation of their project, which is then reviewed by a jury. Typically, the jury consists of award-winning architects from neighboring chapters. The Design Awards Committee facilitates the establishment of the jury and collection of the projects. Winners are recognized at the Design Gala and Annual Meeting in December.
The committee chair is currently vacant. Any interested persons are encouraged to contact the Chapter President.
Executive Committee
The Executive Committee consists of the Chapter officers: the President, Vice President/ President Elect, Secretary and Treasurer. The officers serve a term of two years, coinciding with the calendar year.
Nominating Committee
The Nominating Committee nominates chapter members to serve on the Board of Directors and Executive Committee for the upcoming year. Nominations are made during October with elections held on the day of the Annual Chapter meeting.
The President selects the nominating committee, which is chaired by the Vice President/ President Elect, and consists of four other chapter members, with not more than two members of the Executive Committee serving on the Nominating Committee.
