Celebrate the best of Oregon architecture and honor the outstanding architects and professionals who are shaping our communities. This year's gala will be held on November 14, 2024 at the Portland Art Museum, one of Oregon's most iconic cultural institutions.
The evening will begin with a reception and hors d'oeuvres, followed by an awards ceremony. We will announce the winners of the AIA Oregon Architecture Awards, which recognize excellence in design, practice, education, and service. We will also honor the recipients of the AIA Oregon Professional Achievement Awards, which recognize architects and professionals at all levels of the profession.
The free reception from 5-7 pm in the Sunken Ballroom of the Portland Art Museum (Mark Building) will feature an opportunity to view every 2024 entry while networking with the Design Jury, AIA Oregon leadership, your colleagues, our sponsors, and allied professionals.
At 7pm, only ticketed guests will head upstairs to the Kridel Ballroom for the full open bar, gala, and dinner where we will hear from the jury about the winning entries, enjoy food and conversation, dessert, and champagne toast! Don’t forget your 2024 OAA swag bag on the way out!
