AIAS FORUM 2026 | Denver
Catalyst: The Future of Design
—
January 7-10, 2026
Denver, CO
FORUM is the AIAS’ annual design and career development conference where all of our members from around the world gather in a new city under and spend a few days together to grow together and develop their voices, ideas, and actions for the future.
This year the theme is Catalyst, where we will be exploring how Denver has pushed the boundary of technology, commerce, communication and design, and how we as students are now driving this new world.
Through innovative speakers, seminars, activities, and tours, we will learn about design, service, and leadership advancements in the field, as well as meet, collaborate, and communicate with our fellow members from diverse schools and share perspectives face-to-face. We will also get to know an incredible city for its architecture, firm culture, and history; feature the work of our fellow students; and represent our chapters by electing the 2026-2027 Board of Directors.
Don’t miss our keynote speakers, career development opportunities, our Career and College Expo, a Portfolio Review, workshops, tours, and of course, our Beaux Arts Ball! Get ready to start the year with a bang, and we’ll see you in Denver soon!
