SUMMARY:USGBC Virginia Presents: VCU Engineering Research Building
DESCRIPTION:USGBC Virginia presents a tour of the LEED v2009 Silver Virginia Commonwealth University Engineering Research Building in Richmond! \n\n\n\n\n\nThe College of Engineering at Virginia Commonwealth University opened its new LEED Silver Certified Engineering Research Building in February of 2021. The four-story\, 133\,000-square-foot facility significantly expands the college’s laboratory capacity for advanced research. It also supports economic development initiatives and hands-on engineering education. The ERB extends and connects the building shared by VCU Engineering’s East Hall and the VCU School of Business’ Snead Hall. Its fully equipped Collaboration Hub and Innovation Courtyard are designed to knit together the three buildings in an open\, light-filled space. The design also features specialized workspaces. One of the most notable of these is the Innovation Maker Facility\, a makerspace equipped with resources for hands-on prototyping and creative\, experiential learning\, 3D printing\, bench electrical fabrication\, tabletop equipment and hand tools\, industrial-scale mills and lathes and more. \nThe design and project management team will lead a walking tour of the building and its defining features; discussing the vision\, strategies\, and challenges of creating a contemporary\, sustainable\, and resilient engineering research facility for VCU. \nRegister. \nThis tour has been approved for 1 GBCI CE and 1 AIA LU! \nThis event will not accept at-door registrations.

SUMMARY:Architecture Exchange East
DESCRIPTION:Resilience is the sustained ability of communities to withstand\, adapt to\, and recover from adversity. As we continue to emerge from a global pandemic and societal strife\, we ask ourselves: how can we (re) build our communities? \nBeyond new ways of working\, what are the new paradigms for ourselves\, our practices\, our processes\, our communities\, and our clients? How are the design processes and resultant outcomes encompassing social justice and resiliency? \nJoin your colleagues Nov. 2-4\, 2022 in Richmond (or online) at Architecture Exchange East (ArchEx) as we begin our return to normalcy\, collaborate\, and explore how the profession can expand the dialogue and contribute to a growing common understanding. Through the lens of (re)Building Community\, we’ll explore how to: \n\nMake the profession an ever-increasing service\nDevelop design responses and ideas to support our communities\nContribute to healthier communities and the overall well-being of their inhabitants\n\nRegistration is expected to open in early September.

SUMMARY:Taliesin Colloquium 2023: The Evolution of Preservation Standards and Guidelines
DESCRIPTION:Join the AIA National Historic Resources Committee for a colloquium on The Evolution of Preservation Standards and Guidelines sponsored to be held at Frank Lloyd Wright’s historic Taliesin West in Scottsdale\, Arizona on February 3-4. \n\nThis event will inform dialogue on historic district guidelines at the local level\, as well as the state and national level on ways that preservation standards and guidelines can better interact with and complement energy codes and performance standards\, as well as resilience guidelines\, and to foster community equity. \n\nWe must ask if the current policies and standards governing historic preservation continue to be viable as the world is far different than it was when the standards were written.  The current climate crisis has changed codes and regulations and goals toward sustainable building practices.  Equally our understanding of the need for historic preservation to take on a more holistic view of sustainability including social\, cultural and economic equity has intensified and calls for us to look closely as to whether current standards are inclusive or exclusive.  Are the current policies and practices of historic preservation still valid or must they mature to meet the current challenges?  How can we respond to these challenges and prepare for the future?   Do policies and practices need to be open to change? Some say that current Standards provide the required flexibility and that that it is the interpretation that has become too rigid.   Others believe that we need additional standards to address issues of social and economic equity.  This Colloquium will take a deep dive into the global issues that preservationists face today and the Standards and Guidelines that have been the backbone of our practice. \n\nOrganized by: \nAIA National Historic Resources Committee \n  \n\nPrice\n\n$300 for AIA members \n$500 for non-members \nRegistration fee includes breakfast\, lunch\, reception\, sessions\, reception\, and Twilight tour. \n\n\n\nCredits\n\n11.25 HSW|LUs

SUMMARY:Esra Ackan - Right to Heal
DESCRIPTION:Right to Heal: Human Rights\, Reparations\, and the Future of Memorials — FULL info here \nSpeaker: Esra Ackan\nMichael A. McCarthy Professor of Architectural Theory and Resident Director in the Institute for Comparative Modernities\, Cornell University \nWhat is the role of the designed environment both in the opportunistic responses to conflicts and disasters\, and in the much-needed debates of accountability\, reckoning with the past\, and transitional justice? In this lecture\, scholar and author Esra Akcan explores the concept of right to heal and architecture’s role within\, by defining a healing space as one where political and ecological harms are confronted\, and accountability and reparations are instituted. She raises the question of harm and healing after human rights violations in the past\, and the right-to-truth. \nThis event is in-person only; it will be recorded and made available on UVA School of Architecture’s Youtube Channel.
