1X1 ALUMNAE
The International Archive of Women in Architecture (IAWA) commemorates its 40th anniversary this year!
To celebrate, the IAWA Center will host the “1x1 VT” call for submission of work. The 1x1 VT asks every female alumna from the Architecture Program at Virginia Tech to submit a drawing or flat piece authored by her that represents a breakthrough –a revelatory moment in her education or career (inclusive of all non-conventional career paths). We invite the extensive alumni community to encourage all Virginia Tech alumnae in their networks to contribute to this unique collection. (Please share)
Please register to learn more about this opportunity to be part of the IAWA permanent collection and anniversary year. The Zoom link will be provided in your confirmation. Questions will be answered after the Zoom presentation with an opportunity for follow-up.
We’d like to know more about your journey since graduating from Virginia Tech. This registration offers you the chance to tell us about your journey to date. We’d love to hear about the path you’ve taken since your time at Virginia Tech, whether it has been within architecture, an adjacent field, or a completely different direction. We’d also like to hear about what you are currently working on. Please share a little about your current role, projects, or focus. Whether you are designing, teaching, researching, managing, or exploring other creative avenues, we are excited to learn about your work.
There is no cost to participate. You may show your support to IAWA by making an optional gift at checkout.
