Highlighting Impactful Architecture and Design
AFO’s Community Event series bring people together to experience and discuss the intersection of community and architecture. Offered 3-4 times per year, these events dive into a range of subjects, feature influential design projects, highlight local nonprofits and community organizations, and touch on the architectural challenges that face Oregon and beyond.
We invite you to come join the conversation!
Our Community Event series is open to the public and offered free of charge to AFO members. Check out the event schedule below, and become a member or renew today!
