Design|Access: Open Projects Tours (Experience Architecture 2021)

This popular program gives attendees a behind-the-scenes opportunity to see both known and “tucked-away” architecture projects first-hand in our region. Last year’s video submissions were so successful that moving forward the event will include a combination of in-person and video tours. The on-site (in-person tour) locations will have an AIA architect available to discuss the project, provide information and answer questions.

This year’s featured projects include housing, healthcare, office and public buildings from firms including Boulder Associates, Dreyfuss + Blackford Architecture, Lionakis, Stantec, Studio W Architects and DPR.

Experience Architecture is a public-outreach event designed to facilitate greater transparency with the public in how architects create our built environment and how it impacts their daily lives; to create an ongoing dialogue to inform a distinct, regional, architectural identity; and to highlight existing relationships between the region and its architecture. The 2021 festival runs October 1-10th, celebrating 10 years over 10 days with 10 events. To see more Experience Architecture events, visit www.aiacv.org/exparch
