Looking to impact the greater good while engaging Boston's architecture community? Become a sponsor
The Boston Society of Architects (BSA), is the eastern Massachusetts chapter of our parent organization, The American Institute of Architects (AIA). Our mission is to fiercely advocate for Boston’s architects and designers, providing the resources, support, and welcoming community they need to thrive at every stage of their careers.
Architecture in Common is a charitable 501©3 that empowers the people of Boston to get active in architecture — whether as a future career, a creative and intellectual pursuit, or a powerful way to shape the future of their city.
Together, we pursue a future where architecture is valued and supported as a force for public good, giving shape to a more equitable, resilient, and livable Boston.
When you sponsor the BSA or donate to Architecture in Common, you invest in the future of architecture and the vitality of our communities. Sponsor support strengthens the practice, expands access to design education, and cultivates the next generation of architects and designers. Together, we’re building a Boston where design is more equitable, more connected, and more responsive to the people who call this city home.
