About

The Fellows Public Program Committee (FPPC) was formed to engage with, and promote the
talents and vast experience of, DC Chapter Fellows in a series of programs that target the following objectives:

  • Heighten the general level of engagement and participation by DC Chapter Fellows.
  • Support broad College of Fellow’s program goals to “recognize achievements of the architect as an individual, but also honor before the public and the profession a model architect who has made a significant contribution to architecture and society on a national level”.
  • Support the Chapter’s mission of advancing the value of architecture for our members, our profession and our community.
  • Foster a community of Fellows that supports each other and offers its time, talents and resources in support of the AIA|DC Chapter.
