Local Chapter of the American Institute of Architects in Middle Pennsylvania.

This chapter was organized by members of the AIA Central Pennsylvania and AIA Pittsburgh chapters in 1986 from 9 counties in the former AIA Central Pennsylvania area and 4 counties in the former AIA Pittsburgh and AIA Northwest areas.

As a local Chapter of the American Institute of Architects, our members share a common interest in promoting a richness and diversity in the built environment within our communities and beyond.  Our Chapter is comprised of thirteen counties in the geographical region extending from New York to Maryland.  Our membership includes approximately fifty Architects and Associate Members and approximately ten Affiliates.

We meet every other month and provide continuing education opportunities at most of our meetings. (view our Calendars section)  In odd numbered years 2017, 2019, etc. we sponsor a full day Symposium that includes educational sessions and construction product exhibits.A chapter newsletter is published six times per year; the latest edition can be found here.
