AIA New York 158th Annual Meeting

Please join AIA New York as we elect our 2026 leadership, honor those who contribute to our city's built environment, and celebrate the progress and direction of the Chapter.

During the evening, we will also highlight the challenges, successes, and state of AIA New York in 2025, from public advocacy to professional training, and our annual theme of See You IRL: Designing for Public Life. For the election, independent nominations may be submitted to the Secretary via the chapter (membership@aiany.org) in accordance with Chapter Bylaws. If an independent slate is submitted, a ballot election will be held at the Annual Meeting.

The 2026 Board and Elective Committee Slate will be posted here when the Nominating Committee completes its work.
