2023 Potomac Chapter
Professional Awards

 

Each year, the Potomac Chapter ASLA honors the best in landscape architecture in the DC metropolitan area through a juried awards program.

As was the case last year, all members and applicants will be notified in advance of the names of the winning firms and projects (although not the level of the award).

All awards will be presented at our Awards Gala in May.

We will again plan a dynamic and celebratory atmosphere for the event and will share the recording widely afterwards.

Click here for details and apply by March 17.

 

 

Founded in 1899, the mission of The American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) is to advocate, to lead, to educate, and to participate in the careful stewardship, wise planning, and artful design of cultural, natural and/or the built environments for human enjoyment.

The most important role ASLA takes on for you as a landscape architect or designer, is legal advocacy for the profession on the federal (National) and state (local Chapter) levels. ASLA is doing a lot of work behind the scenes, whether you know it or not, that directly affects you and your livelihood. Without ASLA’s persistent, timely and unwavering effort, landscape architecture as we know and practice it, would not be able to stand up to recurring state sunset laws and federal restrictions.

We are especially interested in increasing the engagement of Emerging Professionals, connecting with allied professionals, and educational outreach to increase the visibility of the profession.
