The Boston Society of Architects (BSA) fiercely advocates for Boston’s architects and designers, providing the resources, support, and welcoming community they need to thrive at every stage of their careers. As the second largest chapter of The American Institute of Architects (AIA), the BSA has been a gathering place for people who believe in architecture as a force for good for over 150 years. The BSA extends and deepens these efforts philanthropically through its 501(c)3, Architecture in Common. Architecture in Common 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, the BSA and Architecture in Common envision a future where architecture is valued and supported as a force for public good, giving shape to a more equitable, resilient, and livable Boston.
