ACT Chapter President\u2019s Message \u2013 February 2017<\/h2>\n

Events, publications, awards, and nominations. The Chapter is as busy as bees at the moment as we lead into the month of madness that is March. <\/p>\n

Our committees have had their first meetings of the year and are planning big things. New members are always welcome. The Planning committee has started its Housing taskforce, the Heritage committee is working on improved cataloguing of our significant buildings, the Small Practice committee have a great list of discussion forums set up, the Gender Equity committee is organising an International Women’s Day breakfast, and the list goes on. Please check out the “What’s On” emails, go to “events” on our website, or call the Chapter for more information. <\/p>\n

On Friday we launched our 2016 Year in Review publication, the first ever edition for the Chapter. I was thrilled to get such positive feedback from our members. The publication is available at the below link if you missed it. <\/p>\n

The awards entries close on Friday 3rd March. That’s right…. this Friday! I expect that there will be some frantic architects and photographers this week capturing their projects in the best light and poetically describing the design intent. Our jury chairs, Janet Thomson and Philip Leeson, are probably hoping for a small number of submissions, but I suspect we might have the opposite. Good luck. <\/p>\n

We were excited to receive a letter from the ACT Heritage Council last week confirming our submissions to nominate the Belconnen Library and Urambi Village have both been accepted and listed as nominated places on the ACT Heritage Register. Thank you to the Heritage committee for their ongoing work in putting the submissions together. It is a very time consuming task and we appreciate your efforts. The submissions are available below. <\/p>\n
