The AIA Interfaith Design Knowledge Community will be holding a member Town Hall on Thursday, January 29th, from 2-3pm (ET). This is an excellent opportunity for members to share what is important to them and what they would like to see addressed in 2026. This is also a great opportunity to meet committee leaders and learn about ways to get involved!
The course is now available in the AIAU catalog.
This panel convenes leading experts to explore innovative adaptive reuse strategies for underutilized faith-based buildings across the United States. Hear from several different perspectives on the critical challenges faced by institutions that are closing or falling into disrepair, in both rural and urban contexts. Discussions will range from the complexities of leveraging historic tax credits to offset developer costs, to how to navigate SEC approval and conversion processes. This session is designed for architects seeking practical, innovative strategies to transform faith structures into vibrant new community assets.
