AIA Winston Salem

Thank you to AIA North Carolina for their ACTIVATE grant that allowed us to put on our third annual Girls’ LEGO Day! We had a great morning sketching, designing, and building “a community for all”. Additional thanks to Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools for this great article highlighting the event!

Last week, Friend Design + Architecture & NexGen Builders gave our members a tour of The Dutch Light, a new cocktail lounge moving into the Innovation Quarter of downtown Winston-Salem. Thank you for giving us a sneak peek of this unique and exciting space! #designwithfriend #aiawinstonsalem #architecture #construction #hospitalitydesign

Shout out to Ricci Builders & Management for an amazing project tour of one of their homes currently under construction. This project utilizes dozens of unique and sustainable building techniques that are second nature to Josh Ricci & his team and will be featured later this fall in the Winston-Salem Parade of Homes. #architecture #design #residentialarchitecture #construction #sustainablebuilding

AIAWS had the first event for our 2024 #ACTIVATE Community project! We're partnering with Crossnore Communities for Children for a Design-Build Project. Together with their staff & the kids, we're designing and building an incentive cart to be used on campus, bringing art supplies, ice cream, hot chocolate, and more to all the kids on campus. This event was the design portion, and seeing the kids bring their ideas to life on paper was so exciting! Their imaginations were endless and their creativity was unmatched! We can't wait to come back on campus and build & decorate this cart with them! Thank you so much to all of our volunteers and sponsors for helping us make this event possible! - AIA North Carolina & ACTIVATE - Fourth Elm Construction - Davie Construction Company - DMA Architecture - WestRock Company for donating the cardboard! #communitymatters #designthatmatters #architecture #design #construction

This year AIAWS is partnering with Crossnore Communities for Children to bring architecture & construction to their kids! We're excited to put on a two-day event--the first being a free-flowing design day where all ideas are possible and the second event where we will build what we've designed in the first event! This is a hands-on opportunity to teach kids about design and construction and the influence our industry has on our community.
