SUMMARY:The Carbon Balance of the Built Environment
DESCRIPTION:Join the AIA Baltimore Committee on the Environment + Resiliency in examining the total carbon balance of the built environment \n1.0 LU/HSW Available\n \nCarbon in the built environment is a larger contributor to global emissions that affect the climate. All participants of the Paris Climate Agreement have to meet certain GHG reduction targets. Meeting these targets is a fundamental condition of the health and well being of humankind now and in the future. \nFor a long time building green meant to reduce the energy that a building needs to operate. With a focus on GHG emissions\, this concern has shifted from energy to carbon emissions\, for example by demanding that a building should be fully electrified even if it is very energy efficient. \nThe focus on carbon as the critical metric brought into focus all aspects of the built environment that are not operations. Looking at the total carbon balance of the built environment brings a lot of other aspects into view\, that have been previously less discussed\, including land use\, site design\, what happens after the lifecycle of the various elements that make up the built environment and “embodied carbon”. The latter term has recently become a hot topic in the sustainability discussion\, for example at this year’s Green Build Conference. \nThis discussion will look at the total carbon balance of the built environment by looking at all major phases and components of carbon emissions and the fact that the lines between embodied and operational carbon are not always easy to understand. Much what winds up as embodied carbon in infrastructure\, sites or buildings has gone through operational stages during production or transport or\, at a minimum embodies operational energy from those stages. \nThe presentation includes these keywords: Total Carbon Footprint of Buildings\, Life Cycle Assessment\, Embodied Carbon\, importance of embodied carbon vs operational carbon\, what industries produce the most carbon\, where in a building embodied carbon is most concentrated. It will also address the carbon footprint of land use and site design and the ability of land itself to be a carbon sink or a carbon emitter. \nParticipants will be able to: \n1. Recognize all stages in design\, construction\, operation and de-construction which contribute GHG emissions \n2. Distinguish between operational and embodied carbon \n3. Identify which early land use and site design decisions influence embodied and operational carbon \n4. Identify strategies to allow land to be a carbon sink instead of an emitter \n5. Find and use tools to estimate embodied carbon and make early decisions that avoid high embodied carbon content \nAbout the Presenter: \nKlaus Philipsen\, FAIA\, ArchPlan\, Inc. \nKlaus Philipsen\, FAIA\, is president of ArchPlan Inc.\, an architecture and urban design firm in Baltimore specializing in community revitalization\, adaptive re-use\, historic preservation and transportation planning since 1992. He has been named a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects for using his profession to affect communities through advocacy. \nAdditionally\, Philipsen is or has been engaged in the nonprofit sector such as a statewide growth management group which he helped found (1994-2016) an urban land trust for which he is president\, a non-profit design center in Baltimore which he co-founded\, as chair of the Urban Design Committee of both the local Chapter of the American Institute of Architects until 2017\, (AIA) and the national Regional and Urban Design Committee of AIA (RUDC); He was for 10 years a member of a Borough Council in Stuttgart. He currently chairs the Housing Subcommittee of the Social Determinants of Health Task Force at UMB. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Webinar: Follow the Energy Rich Road to PV - Lessons Learned from Three Zero Energy
DESCRIPTION:1.5 LU/HSW Available \nPlanning a Zero Energy building can seem daunting\, but this session will demystify a successful design and construction process that can put anyone on the path to Net Zero Energy. This session will cover the cost-shifting strategies of energy-efficient design with a focus on zero energy operation for Maryland’s first three new Zero Energy public schools: Wilde Lake MS\, Holabird Academy ES/MS\, and Graceland Park-O’Donnel Heights ES/MS. Prioritizing energy efficiency is possible\, for any school district that is looking to provide world-class schools that can integrate teaching\, learning\, and equitable sustainable design\,. The panelists from two architecture firms\, Grimm + Parker Architects and TCA Architects\, will share challenges\, opportunities\, and lessons learned for zero energy strategies\, user behavior outreach\, and ongoing occupant training. In light of concerns from the COVID-19 pandemic\, the panelists will also discuss what measures can be taken to balance indoor environmental quality and deep energy savings. \nLearning Objectives \n*Explore fundamentals of design to achieve Zero Energy operation within new public buildings through the examples of equitable design\, cost-effective construction details and energy-efficient mechanical and electrical systems. \n*Identify critical decisions needed by the owner/client at each stage of sustainable design and construction to successfully operate as a Zero Energy facility that elevates the user experience with healthy indoor environments and a focus on wellness. \n*Summarize operational Zero Energy Lessons Learned that can be incorporated by Owners\, A/E teams and construction partners. \n*Discover the opportunities of using the building as a sustainable learning tool from design through construction\, and during operation. \nRobyn Toth\, AIA | TCA Architects\, LLC \nAs Owner and Principal of TCA Architects\, LLC\, Robyn Toth\, has dedicated the past 25 years to the design of sustainable educational facilities and has worked on over 88 school projects in the state of Maryland.

SUMMARY:Eutaw Farm and the Creation of Northeast Baltimore - (Offering In-Person AND Virtual Experience)
DESCRIPTION:Archaeologists Jason Shellenhamer and Lisa Kraus will share the results of their six-years of field work and research in Herring Run Park\, which has uncovered the remains of one of Baltimore’s largely forgotten great estates\, Eutaw Farm. Like most of Baltimore’s homes of the rich (and sometimes famous)\, including the Carrolls of Homewood and the Garretts of Evergreen\, the history of Eutaw speaks to a wealthy white family’s rise and fall. But the archaeology of Eutaw Farm also reveals remarkable and astonishing stories about the development of Northeast Baltimore and the founding families of Baltimore\, those you may have heard of and those whose stories have never before been told. \nPLEASE NOTE: This HYPRID IN-PERSON + VIrtual EVENT is part of Doors Open Baltimore\, a citywide festival of architecture and neighborhoods sponsored by the Baltimore Architecture Foundation. If you have opted for a virtual ticket\, you will receive a Zoom link closer to the event. \n  \nABOUT THE SPEAKERS \nLisa Kraus (Ph.D.\, University of Texas at Austin) and Jason Shellenhamer (M.A.A.\, University of Maryland) are professional archaeologists with a combined 40 years of experience in historical archaeology. They are also the co-directors of the Herring Run Archaeology Project\, a free\, community-based archaeology program in Baltimore City. Since 2015\, they have conducted excavations\, research\, and public outreach at the Eutaw Farm site in Herring Run Park and the Ship Caulkers’ Houses in Fells Point. \nREGISTER FOR A VIRTUAL TICKET \nREGISTER FOR A IN-PERSON TICKET

Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. \nAlong with its famous\, architecturally distinguished churches\, Baltimore retains many lesser-known but architecturally and socially interesting church buildings. Some are modest\, simple structures\, some are grander\, and probably all of them have been ignored when we think about Baltimore’s architectural heritage. If we stop to look at them\, however\, we see the evidence of Baltimore’s spatial and population growth in the years before the Civil War. They tell a tale of geographic and social mobility\, changing tastes\, and even theological change. You can see all this\, if you know what you’re looking at. \nMichael S. Franch\, Ph.D.\, is a historian\, board member and past president of the Baltimore City Historical Society\, He is especially interested in Baltimore urban growth and religious community in the early 19th century. \nView all Doors Open Baltimore programs at www.doorsopenbaltimore.org \nREGISTER HERE

We’ll explore what makes this modernist church so beloved by Baltimoreans. \nThe Church of the Redeemer was built in 1958 and designed by architect Pietro Belluschi in collaboration with RTKL. It is a Mid-Century Modern\, re-interpretive addition to the original 1856 church by R. Snowden Andrews (1830-1903). Its sophisticated design integrates original stone and like materials to create a modern spirituality of the time. \nPeitro Belluschi (1899-1994) was born in Italy\, and moved to Portland\, Oregon in the 1920’s. His churches and residences reflected a Pacific Northwest vernacular of wood and stone\, while his seminal commercial work was more modern in its materials vocabulary. We will tour the 1856 historic chapel\, and the 1958 church and supporting administration wing and will view some of the original drawings and documentation of the Belluschi work. \nThis program will be presented by We’ll be joined by Mark Schroeder\, Director of Facilities at the Church of the Redeemer. \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Designs on Victory: Olmsted-inspired Garden City Plans for Historic Dundalk
DESCRIPTION:Amy Menzer discusses the design and development of WWI Era Historic Dundalk\n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom. Upon registering you will receive an email confirmation and a Zoom link. If you do not receive a link\, please contact ndennies@aiabalt.com. If you do not contact us at least 1 hour prior to the start of the program\, we cannot guarantee admittance. \nThe Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present the Virtual Histories Series: 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history. Hosted every Friday at 1:00 pm EST. This special program is co-hosted by the Maryland Chapter of American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) and the Friends of Maryland’s Olmsted Parks & Landscapes (FMOPL) as part of Olmsted 200 celebration of the Bicentennial of Frederick Law Olmsted Sr’s birth. \nTickets are donation based. We encourage you to give what you can to support BAF and Baltimore Heritage. Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. \nThe Bethlehem Steel Mill at Sparrows Point launched an effort to create a Garden City-style town in 1917 just before the US entered WWI. At the same time\, the Federal Government began housing production for war workers. Frederick Law Olmsted\, Jr. (FLO Jr.) headed the Town Planning division of the new United States Housing Corporation. Several colleagues in the nascent profession of city planning who had worked with FLO Jr. on Roland Park and Forest Hills Gardens were all directly involved in designing Dundalk\, including Baltimore architect Edward Palmer\, Roland Park Company leader Edward Bouton\, and architects Grosvenor Atterbury and Charles Wellford Leavitt. Their plans were inspired by their designs for more affluent areas\, including curvilinear streets\, separation of uses\, green spaces\, and restrictive covenants. We will explore how these plans created a new community for workers and managers\, but was segregated by race. \nPresenters \nAmy E. Menzer is executive director of Dundalk Renaissance\, a 20 year-old non-profit community development organization\, and is deeply interested in planning history and neighborhood change. She also serves as a Board member of the Friends of Maryland’s Olmsted Parks and Landscapes. She previously worked for Citizens Planning and Housing Association on housing and transportation advocacy\, and has served as President of the Community Development Network of Maryland\, NeighborSpace Baltimore County\, the Patterson Park Neighborhood Association\, and the Transit Riders League of Metropolitan Baltimore. She holds a Ph.D in Human Geography from Johns Hopkins University. \nJoining this presentation is Meg Fairfax Fielding\, past president of BAF\, and member of BAF’s Dead Architects’ Society. By day\, Meg is the head of the History of Maryland Medicine at MedChi\, which was founded in 1799\, but on weekends\, loves to explore Baltimore and the surrounding areas and take deep dives into the historical contributing architects\, such as Palmer & Lamdin.

SUMMARY:The History and Award Winning Renovation of the Pratt Central Library
DESCRIPTION:Sandra Vicchio and Jillian Storms discuss the design of the Pratt Central Library\, one of Baltimore’s most beloved buildings.\n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom. Upon registering you will receive an email confirmation and a Zoom link. If you do not receive a link\, please contact ndennies@aiabalt.com. If you do not contact us at least 1 hour prior to the start of the program\, we cannot guarantee admittance. \nThe Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present the Virtual Histories Series: 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history. Hosted every Friday at 1:00 pm EST. This special program is hosted in partnership with the George Peabody Library. \nTickets are donation based. We encourage you to give what you can to support BAF and Baltimore Heritage. Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. \nAbout this Presentation: \nThe Pratt Central Library achieved second place in BAF’s Architecture Madness tournament of Baltimore’s best buildings built between 1870 and today and hosted in celebration of AIA Baltimore’s 150th anniversary. In today’s Virtual History\, we’ll explore what makes this library so special and how it served as a national model for libraries that followed. \nIn 1882\, Enoch Pratt gave a whopping $1 million gift to Baltimore City to launch the nation’s first free library system\, proclaiming\, “My library shall be for all\, rich and poor without distinction of race or color…” This welcoming vision was echoed in the 1929 design of the system’s new central branch\, starting with its street-level main entrance on Cathedral Street\, going against the grain of architectural design for grand civic institutions at the time. Architect Clyde N. Friz hoped to give the library “a dignity characterized by friendliness rather than aloofness” avoiding the old-fashioned institutional character of past libraries. When Baltimore’s Central Library opened on Cathedral Street in 1933\, it displayed its featured content in large bay windows along its street facade enticing all to enter\, much like department stores on nearby Howard Street. \nToday\, the Central Library serves more than half a million people a year and recently received a $115 million\, three-year renovation. Its exterior and interiors were gorgeously restored and fully transformed for the digital age with up-to-date systems and technology masterfully integrated into the historic fabric. Dropped ceilings were removed to reveal fabulous stenciling\, decorative molding damaged in prior renovations was restored by artisans\, and historically appropriate new lighting was installed to make the rooms feel light and airy. The results are stunning. \nCome join us as we hear from our two presenters about this award-winning library\, inviting and comfortable for all who enter\, and one that will fill you with civic pride. Gordon Krabbe\, Chief Operating Officer of the Enoch Pratt Free Library\, will be introducing our presenters. \nAbout the Presenters: \nJillian Storms\, AIA\, has done extensive architectural research on numerous architects who practiced in Maryland\, including Clyde N. Friz\, AIA\, who holds the first architectural licence issued by the State of Maryland. She is a former President of the BAF and now serves as co-chair of its research committee\, the Dead Architects’ Society. She serves as a capital programs manager at the School Facilities Branch of the Maryland State Department of Education. \nSandra Parsons Vicchio\, AIA\, NCARB\, LEED AP\, is founding principal of Sandra Vicchio & Associates\, LLC\, with more than 30 years of experience in programming\, planning\, architecture\, and design. Her portfolio includes historic preservation\, renovation\, and new construction encompassing laboratory\, office\, academic\, administrative\, visitor center\, library\, and museum spaces. She co-authored the 2015 book The Living Library: An Intellectual Ecosystem and served as consulting architect on the Pratt Central Library renovation project team\, along with lead architects\, Beyer Blinder Belle\, and managing architects\, Ayers Saint Gross. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Hillandale Gateway Case Study:  Large Mixed Use/Multi-Family Passive House
DESCRIPTION:Hillandale Gateway is a mixed-use project targeting ambitious sustainability goals including LEED\, Passive House\, EnergyStar\, and NZE.\n\n\nThe Hillandale Gateway Project is a new multi-building\, mixed use\, mixed income development located in eastern Montgomery County\, Maryland. The project is prominently located adjacent to the Capital Beltway (I-495) affording it excellent visibility. Such prominence offers an opportunity to set a highly visible example of exceptionally sustainable development within the region. This Project represents a partnership formed in 2015 between two long-term community stakeholders with deep roots in Montgomery County: The Housing Opportunities Commission of Montgomery County and The Duffie Companies as represented by sustainability focused partner PS Ventures\, LLC. \nAs long-term holders of real estate\, the ownership team has recognized the values of quality\, durability\, and resilience from the very beginning. Hillandale Gateway will seek achievement of a variety of third-party certifications demonstrating the team’s commitment to setting new standards in sustainability and resiliency. The Project is targeting certifications including LEED for Homes Platinum\, Energy Star for Multi-Family\, Passive House (via Passive House Institute US – PHIUS)\, and Net Zero Energy (on one of the two residential buildings). Each of these ‘above code minimum’ standards offers a different focus which will be briefly explored during the session. \nSuch ambitious goals require the coordinated efforts of many professionals all working together and pulling in the same direction. Early in the entitlement process the Hillandale team was assembled (from all over the Country) for a number of design charrettes where Project goals were outlined\, significant obstacles were identified\, and various design approaches were discussed and challenged. The importance of assembling the correct team and ensuring that efforts are coordinated early in the development process will be a focus of this session. \nHIllandale Gateway will feature two separate residential structures connected by a common above ground parking structure. The design team worked together to identify products and systems which would allow for the achievement of our sustainability goals as close to cost parity with a code minimum approach as possible. The team’s methodology\, which favors use and adaptation of reliable systems\, iteration\, and a focus on simplicity will be discussed. The major systems being employed in Hillandale will be outlined and discussed (i.e. structure\, envelope\, heating/cooling\, ventilation\, & water heating). \nFinally\, with a long-term perspective\, the team has also demonstrated a “best value” vs purely “first cost” approach throughout the design and development process. The advantages of refocusing on the question of “Is it worth it?” compared to the far more common “How much does it cost?” will be explored. \nLearning Objectives: \n1. Understand what the Passive House Standard is (PHIUS) and how it differs from LEED. \n2. Recognize the value of early design team coordination in the implementation of a large-scale multi-family passive house project. \n3. Recognize the benefits of research\, adaptation\, iteration\, and simplicity in the design of systems. \n4. Understand the challenges and lessons already learned in the selection of products and systems utilized on the Hillandale Gateway Project. \n5. Understand the benefits of a “Best Value” vs a pure “First Cost” approach to development. \nPresenters: \nShane Pollin – Principal PS Ventures\, LLC \n Brandon Nicholson – Principal NK Passive \n\nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Morgan State University: National Treasure and Model for Preservation
DESCRIPTION:On its five-year anniversary as a designated National Treasure\, we will hear about the University’s stewardship of its historic buildings.\n\n\nIn this Virtual Histories Series\, the Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage host weekly 30-minute lunchtime live presentations on Zoom focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation\, and history. Upon registering\, you will receive an email confirmation and a Zoom link. If you do not receive a link\, please contact ndennies@aiabalt.com at least 1-hour prior to the start of the program or cannot guarantee admittance. \nReservations are donation-based. We encourage you to give what you can to support BAF and Baltimore Heritage. Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. This presentation is also co-hosted by Morgan State University and the Baltimore Chapter of the National Organization of Minority Architects. \nAbout this Presentation: \nIn May 2016\, the nation’s leading preservation organization\, the National Trust for Historic Preservation\, designated Morgan State University a National Treasure. The designation served to recognize the University’s significance as an HBCU (Historically Black College and University) and as a compelling example of the challenges that colleges across the country face in stewarding their historic buildings while redeveloping their historic campuses. \nFounded in 1867 as one of the nation’s earliest institutions to offer post-secondary education for African Americans and the largest in the state of Maryland\, Morgan State University’s urban campus has an impressive collection of historic buildings. The University’s varied built landscape features 20 contributing structures—ranging from Classical and Italianate to Modern and Brutalist—eligible for listing on the National Register. Buildings on the campus were designed by pioneering and celebrated black architects such as Albert Cassell\, Hilyard Robinson\, Louis Fry\, and Leon Bridges. In addition\, the University is home to one of six HBCU accredited architecture programs and the only one accredited in historic preservation. \nIn its effort towards preserving the rich cultural legacy of HBCUs\, the National Trust joined forces with the University to envision a forward-thinking stewardship strategy for preserving HBCU campuses. The partnership aimed at developing a campus heritage preservation plan for Morgan State University – a critical tool to inform campus master planning – that could be applied at other HBCUs across the country. \nOn its five-year anniversary as a designated National Treasure\, we will hear about the University’s progress to create a preservation roadmap that stewards the many historic buildings on campus\, while planning wisely for the university’s long-term\, sustainable future. \nAbout the Presenter: \nDale Glenwood Green is a descendant of Reverend Samuel Green\, Sr. (a Visionary Founder of Morgan State University)\, Morgan Alumnus (a inaugural student of the Morgan undergraduate architecture program)\, and Professor of Architecture and Lead Faculty for Historic Preservation at Morgan State University School of Architecture and Planning. He has been teaching and leading research on Morgan’s campus heritage since he joined the faculty in 2008. He along with his faculty colleagues and students have collaborated with the University and the National Trust for Historic Preservation on preserving the campus and individually listing the University Memorial Chapel on the National Register of Historic Places. He has been leading the Preservation in Practice summer program with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation\, National Parks Service and the National Trust for Historic Preservation. \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Designing the AVAM – Winner of Baltimore Architecture Madness
DESCRIPTION:AVAM Founder and Director Rebecca Hoffberger\, and architects Rebecca Swanston and Diane Cho celebrate the design of this Baltimore treasure\n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom. Upon registering you will receive an email confirmation and a Zoom link. If you do not receive a link\, please contact ndennies@aiabalt.com. If you do not contact us at least 1 hour prior to the start of the program\, we cannot guarantee admittance. \nThe Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present the Virtual Histories Series: 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history. Hosted every Friday at 1:00 pm EST. This special program is hosted in partnership with the American Visionary Art Museum (AVAM).

Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. \nThe American Visionary Art Museum (AVAM) was crowned winner of BAF’s Architecture Madness Tournament\, which included 64 exceptional Baltimore buildings built between 1870 and today\, hosted in celebration of AIA Baltimore’s 150th anniversary. \nWe’ll be joined by AVAM founder and director Rebecca Hoffberger and architects Diane Cho and Rebecca Swanston to celebrate and reflect upon the design of Baltimore’s most beloved building of the past 150 years. \nCompleted in 1995\, AVAM is a brilliant example of sculptural expression. Architect Rebecca Swanston\, FAIA and designer Alex Castro incorporated the curving Trolley Works building and enlarged it with an addition that echoes its curves and creates a strong sense of motion. Its playful\, eye-catching facade\, created by youth in the Maryland Department of Juvenile Services as a way to provide them with tangible skills and personal development\, was an echoing sentiment from Rebecca Alban Hoffberger\, Founder/Director and Primary Curator of AVAM that “social justice is life’s highest performance art”. The shimmering and whimsy exterior mirrors the artworks found inside by self-taught individuals that make AVAM one of the city’s most beloved institutions. Architect Diane Cho\, AIA of Cho Benn Holback + Associates (today Quinn Evans) led the 2004 expansion of the museum transforming an old whiskey barrel warehouse into AVAM’s Jim Rouse Visionary Center. Both projects are stellar examples of adaptive use – the creative repurposing of historic buildings. \nWhen asked to describe why they voted the way they did\, Architecture Madness voters emphasized how AVAM’s architecture embodies the museum’s spirit. As one voter put it\, “It feels alive. It feels like a building that embraces all people and inspires creativity and a sense of wonder.” \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:The Robert F. Kennedy Funeral Train: The People’s View from Baltimore
DESCRIPTION:This program is hosted on Zoom. Upon registering you will receive an email confirmation and a Zoom link. If you do not receive a link\, please contact ndennies@aiabalt.com. If you do not contact us at least 1 hour prior to the start of the program\, we cannot guarantee admittance. \nThe Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present the Virtual Histories Series: 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history.

Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. \nOn June 8 1968\, the Robert F Kennedy Funeral Train rode through Baltimore\, on its way to Washington D.C.\, carrying the body of Senator Robert F Kennedy. On board the train was photographer Paul Fusco\, who during the journey photographed the many bewildered mourners paying their final respects. A cross-section of American society—Black and White\, city-dwellers and country folk—all stared at the slowly passing train. \nWe hope you’ll join us to hear photographer Rein Jelle Terpstra talk about his project to search for the reverse photographic perspective: pictures and films made by the bystanders that stood along the railroad that day. Here\, the mourners do not merely play a role in someone else’s pictures\, but are the photographers and filmmakers themselves. With their cameras\, they gazed back at the train and recorded it in their own fashion. On his research trips\, Terpstra visited almost all of the places that the funeral train passed through in an effort to track down people who took photographs of the train passing. This project is entirely based on memories\, snapshots\, home movies\, and sound\, recorded by bystanders standing along the tracks that day. \nThe project was on show at the Museum of Modern Art\, San Francisco\, in Les Rencontres D’Arles (France 2018)\, the International Center of Photography (New York City 2018) and the Nederlands Fotomuseum\, Rotterdam (2019). \n  \nAbout the Speaker: \nRein Jelle Terpstra teaches fine arts and photography at Minerva Art Academy\, Groningen (NL). After a residency at the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten (Amsterdam)\, he began investigating the relationships between perception\, memory and history by making slideshow installations and books. His work is held in various collections\, including the collection of the SFMOMA (San Francisco)\, MoMA Library (New York)\, EYE Film Museum (Amsterdam)\, Nederlands Fotomuseum (Rotterdam)\, The Royal Museum of Arts (Brussels)\, Yale University Library (New Haven)\, and the Getty Research Institute (Los Angeles). During the spring of 2017\, Terpstra undertook a Smithsonian Artist Research Fellowship in Washington\, D.C. to work on the subject of this lecture.

SUMMARY:Celebrating Culture and History Of Baltimore Through The Evolution of Space
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our 3rd and final Lunch Lecture as part of the 43rd AIA Baltimore/BAF Spring Lecture Series\n\n\nArchitecture is a manifestation of culture. On the occasion of AIA Baltimore’s 150th anniversary\, the AIA Baltimore and Baltimore Architecture Foundation 2021 Lecture Series will explore how the built environment simultaneously reflects and influences culture\, in Baltimore and beyond. Each lecture will expose how cultural values shape design. The three lectures are focused around themes with specific local resonance in Baltimore\, a city in which the arts and culture are key to community identity\, history\, and future vitality: Architecture and Identity\, Art and Architecture\, Architecture and Social Justice. Visiting and local speakers will examine and highlight the built environment and its relationship with the arts\, community initiatives\, sustainability goals\, preservation\, equity\, the vernacular\, and more\, as we reflect on how these have been shaped by design practice throughout AIA Baltimore’s 150-year history. \nBaltimore is one of the oldest cities in America. Its development and neighborhoods are not only an impression of its past but a reflection of its present and future. Today\, many of our present spaces and buildings pay homage to the many years of life\, people\, and culture that preceded this moment. The Frederick Douglass- Isaac Myers Maritime Park\, the Chick Webb recreation center in the Perkins/Somerset/Olde Town redevelopment project\, and the Pennsylvania Arts District are examples of the evolution of how that culture is expressed in community development. \nOn its face\, it may seem that these are extremely different\, but they both represent pivotal points\, and the importance of the African-American presence\, commerce\, culture\, and development of Baltimore. Today we celebrate them in place and design for all to experience through not only historical interpretation\, but allowing their stories to continue by breathing new life into the buildings and sites. The Frederick Douglass- Isaac Myers Maritime Park\, the Chick Webb recreation center\, and the Pennsylvania Arts District represent the intersection of how the built environment meets everyday life\, the arts\, community design\, preservation\, and the evolution of equity and social justice in a 21st Century Baltimore. \nAbout Our Presenters \nChris Ryer\, Director of Baltimore City Department of Planning \nChris Ryer began working in community development over 30 years ago as an intern at the Baltimore Planning Department. After ten years as a community planner with the Department\, he moved to the non-profit sector where he worked for the Trust for Public Lands and a community-based organization in southwest Baltimore. \nIn 2002 he returned to the Baltimore Planning Department where he served as Chief of Comprehensive Planning and Deputy Director. After a short period at the Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development\, he served as the Director of the Southeast Community Development Corporation for over ten years before returning to the Planning Department as Director in 2019. \nTamara Woods\, Chief of Urban Design\, Baltimore City Department of Planning \nTamara Woods has been with the Department of Planning since 2002. As a Planning\, Redevelopment and Policy Administrator she combines her expertise in land use planning and neighborhood planning to work primarily on land use policy initiatives and regulatory writing\, such as working extensively on the zoning code rewrite. In addition\, she focuses on project development and management of large-scale or complex development efforts that are multi-phased and/or have high neighborhood transformation impacts. \n\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n\n\nThank You To Our Generous Sponsors!\nMajor Sponsor  \nAyers Saint Gross \nHord Coplan Macht \nMaryland ASLA  \nWilldan \nSupporting Sponsor \nOak Contracting \nDesign Collective \nGensler \ninPLACE Design \nJMT Architecture \nMerritt Construction \nPrice Modern \nTW Perry \nVision Technologies \nWhiting-Turner  \nWohlsen \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCapitol Sponsor \nShaw \nCorinthian Sponsor \nGWWO Architects \nJames Posey Associates \nMurphy Dittenhafer Architects \nMohawk Group \nNorthpoint Builders \nPotomac Valley Brick & Supply \nSite Resources \nMueller Associates \nIonic Sponsor \nHope Furrer Associates \nCraig Gaulden Davis Architects \nAPA Maryland  \nAmerican Cedar & Millwork \nAmes & Gough \nBudova Engineering  \nCraig Gaulden Davis Architects \nDoubleEdge Design \nMorabito Consultants \nMoseley Architects \nPlano Coudon \nQuinn Evans \nSouthway Builders \nSuzane Frasier\, FAIA \nT3XTURE \nZiger|Snead \n\n\n\nThis project was made possible by a grant from Maryland Humanities\, with funding received from the Maryland Historical Trust in the Maryland Department of Planning.

SUMMARY:Energy Models – What Are They Good For Anyway? A Guide For Beginners
DESCRIPTION:1.0  AIA/LU/HSW \nJoin The AIA Baltimore Committee on the Environment for a webinar exploring energy modeling… \n\n\n\nJoin Committee Co-Chair Ben Roush as he and other energy modelers discuss energy models\, their uses\, their limitations\, and what architects can do in house. The presentation will include showing several modeling tools\, how to parse results\, and how to “reality check” your energy model results. \nLearning objectives: \n• Learn about the uses and limitation of energy models \n• Will cover multiple energy modeling tools\, limitations and appropriate uses \n• Will use the concept of Energy use Intensity (EUI) to talk about how architects can reality check energy model results \n• Will discuss the phases of project\, where energy model input is important\, and what architects can and should do in house to improve their building designs for energy performance. \nREGISTER HERE \n\nThank You To Our Promotional Partner

SUMMARY:AIA Baltimore & BAF Spring Lecture Series: Architecture + Social Justice
DESCRIPTION:Join AIA Baltimore and The Baltimore Architecture Foundation for the 2021 Spring Lecture Series…\n\n\nCover photo: National Slavery Museum at the Lumpkin’s Slave Jail\, image courtesy of SmithGroup \n1.5 AIA LU HSW Available\, ASLA 1.5 LU/HSW \n\n\nArchitecture is a manifestation of culture. On the occasion of AIA Baltimore’s 150th anniversary\, the AIA Baltimore and Baltimore Architecture Foundation 2021 Lecture Series will explore how the built environment simultaneously reflects and influences culture\, in Baltimore and beyond. Each lecture will expose how cultural values shape design. The three lectures are focused around themes with specific local resonance in Baltimore\, a city in which the arts and culture are key to community identity\, history\, and future vitality: Architecture and Identity\, Art and Architecture\, Architecture and Social Justice. Visiting and local speakers will examine and highlight the built environment and its relationship with the arts\, community initiatives\, sustainability goals\, preservation\, equity\, the vernacular\, and more\, as we reflect on how these have been shaped by design practice throughout AIA Baltimore’s 150 year history. \nArchitecture + Social Justice lecturers will speak about designing for social justice in urban and landscape projects.\n \n\nRegister Here\n  \n \nNational Slavery Museum at the Lumpkin’s Slave Jail\, image courtesy of SmithGroup \nDayton Schroeter\, AIA\, SmithGroup\, Design Principal \nDayton Schroeter\, AIA with SmithGroup will address how architecture has the power to uncover buried stories and hidden history. The African American experience is a story of disruption and lost history compounded by the transatlantic slave trade\, colonialism\, imperialism and capitalist globalization. As such African American history has been tragically distorted\, removed and/or hidden from contemporary discussions about race and Black life in America. Architecture can be a redeeming force in reconciling this loss\, reconnecting African Americans with their history and telling a more complete story of American history. \n \nDear Chinatown\, DC\, Image courtesy of The Urban Studio \nMaisie Hughes\, ASLA\, APA\nThe Urban Studio\nCo-Founder + Treasurer\, Urban Planner | Landscape Architect | Certified Arborist \nMasie Hughes will discuss a project that precedes the Urban Studio; co-Founders Maisie Hughes and Kendra Hyson piloted a 10-week environmental education program that taught high school students how to develop design solutions to some of the DC-area’s most pressing stormwater issues. The students were tasked with addressing stormwater and water quality issues in the students’ neighborhoods\, which are located in some of the most polluted watersheds in the city according to DOEE. These brilliant students developed a comprehensive landscape plan that included much-needed community amenities and green infrastructure strategies to capture and clean the stormwater on their perspective sites. The program not only inspired us to launch the Urban Studio\, it inspired us to put values at the center of our work. This presentation will discuss how values centered work can inform and transform how we practice. \n  \nAbout the Presenters \nDayton Schroeter\, AIA\, SmithGroup\, Design Principal \nDayton is a Design Principal who has championed design justice advocacy throughout his career at SmithGroup. As a leader of the firm’s Justice\, Equity\, Diversity and Inclusion Committee\, his charge is to lead design projects that address the systemic injustice that architecture and planning have perpetuated for historically disenfranchised communities of color. Leveraging his tenacious passion for design justice with authenticity and creativity\, he is currently leading antiracism efforts in design projects including an installation called Society’s Cage that sheds national awareness of the intersectional effects of racism on our society’s collective health\, safety and welfare\, as well as Lumpkin’s Slave Jail\, also known as the “Devil’s Half Acre\,” an interpretive museum in Richmond\, Virginia. \nMaisie Hughes\, ASLA\, APA \nThe Urban Studio\, Co-Founder + Treasurer\, Urban Planner | Landscape Architect | Certified Arborist \nMaisie brings decades of leadership and management to her practice. As a 2018-2019 Leadership and Innovation Fellow with the Landscape Architecture Foundation\, she brings honest and unvarnished insights to provide a framework for people-centered design. Maisie won the National Capital Area Chapter of the American Planning Association 2016 Fredrick Gutheim Award for Distinguished Leadership by a Professional Planner and the 2014 Award of Merrit for the “Citizen Advocate Handbook”. Maisie is an ISA Certified Arborist\, with an Executive Certificate in Nonprofit Management from Georgetown University\, a Master of Landscape Architecture degree from Morgan State University\, and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Afro-American studies from Howard University. \nThank You To Our Generous Sponsors!\nMajor Sponsor \n\n\n \n \n \n \n  \nSupporting Sponsor\n\n  \n \n  \n                                               \n \n \n \n \n \nCapitol Sponsor \nShaw \nCorinthian Sponsor \nGWWO Architects \nJames Posey Associates \nMueller Associates \nMurphy Dittenhafer Architects \nMohawk Group \nNorthpoint Builders \nPotomac Valley Brick & Supply \nSite Resources \nSTV Inc. \nIonic Sponsor \nAPA Maryland \nAmerican Cedar & Millwork \nAmes & Gough \nBudova Engineering \nCianbro \nCraig Gaulden Davis Architects \nDoubleEdge Design \nHope Furrer Associates \nMorabito Consultants \nMoseley Architects \nPella Mid-Atlantic \nPlano Coudon \nQuinn Evans \nSouthway Builders \nSuzanne Frasier\, FAIA \nT3XTURE \nZiger|Snead \n\n\n  \n \nThis project was made possible by a grant from Maryland Humanities\, with funding received from the Maryland Historical Trust in the Maryland Department of Planning.
