The AIA|DC Emerging Architects Committee presents the seventh annual Thesis
Showcase for emerging professionals to present their architectural thesis to
practitioners from around the DC area - this time, we’re virtual!
This program aims to bridge the gap between recent graduates and practicing
architects by providing an opportunity for practitioners to view a sample of
work emerging from architecture schools. Four presenters will be selected to
speak for 10 minutes each, after which a moderator will solicit questions
from the audience to facilitate a conversation that draws connections between
thesis projects.
