If you are involved in any aspect of the traditional building industry and you are interested in networking with other like-minded professionals, you owe it to yourself to check out the Institute for Classical Architecture & Art. There are fourteen Chapters throughout the Country, each with their own regional flavor and activities. The organization is "dedicated to advancing the classical tradition in architecture, urbanism and their allied arts. It does so through education, publication and advocacy."
I've attended several events organized by my local group, The Chicago-Midwest Chapter, which have been excellent...I really look forward to chatting with fellow attendees before and after the presentations as much as the presentation itself.
