Founded in 1857, the American Institute of Architects New York (AIANY) is the oldest and largest chapter of the American Institute of Architects. Members include more than 5,500 practicing architects, allied professionals, students, and public members interested in architecture and design. AIANY is dedicated to three goals: design excellence, public outreach, and professional development.

AIANY shares a home with sister organization Center for Architecture, a leading cultural venue for architecture and the built environment in New York City, informed by the complexity of the City’s urban fabric and in dialogue with the global community. The Center for Architecture has the unique advantage of drawing upon the ideas and experiences of practicing architects to produce thought-provoking exhibitions, informative public programs, and quality design education experiences for K-12 students. It also leads New York City’s annual month-long architecture and design festival, Archtober. The Center for Architecture’s aim is to further public knowledge about New York City architecture and architects, foster exchange and collaboration among members of the design, development, building, scholarly, and policy sectors, and inspire new ideas about the role of design in communities by presenting contemporary and practical issues in architecture and urbanism to a general audience.
