Architecture Week is held every April as part of a nationwide celebration. Lectures, tours and activites geared towards professionals and the public alike are concentrated during the month of April, including:

• A guided walking tour of Old Town Alexandria
• Lectures on current issues in architecture
• Annual Canstruction® build-out night and competition
• An exhibit showcasing winning projects from Chapter's Design Awards
• Service projects
• A self-guided bike tour along the historic George Washington Parkway
• An exhibit from the Architecture in the Schools Program

2010 saw the addition of PechaKucha 20x20, where enthusiasts of any kind are given 20 seconds per 20 slides to share what they know over cocktails. Please contact the Chapter House if you have ideas for future events or are interested in joining the Architecture Week committee.
