The Executive Committee of the American Society of Landscape Architects Minnesota Chapter Cordially invites you to the 43rd awards dinner and celebration Friday, April 20, 2012 at the Elements Cafe in the Science Museum of Minnesota.

The annual awards celebration and gala is the marquee social event of ASLA-MN celebrating the landscape architecture profession, allied fields, and this year’s theme: Making Waves, Changing Course, How Landscape Architecture is changing the way we understand water.

In 2012, the American Society of Landscape Architects-Minnesota Chapter is focusing on protecting, enhancing, and celebrating our regional waters.

Changes in climate and increased human pressures are difficult to predict. What is certain is that our complex connection with water will continue as will our constant effort to understand and improve that relationship. The waterways we take for granted here in the Midwest create environmental, social and economic ripples that can be felt across the country and around the world. Similarly, 21st century solutions and innovations have the power to alter the course of industries, fields of research, and the way we live.                

Water is one of the most powerful and important elements of our landscape. ASLA-MN looks forward to showcasing the work it inspires and the legacy landscape architects will leave.

You do not need to be a landscape architect or award winner to attend this festive event. ASLA-MN’s annual gala is a unique opportunity for all those working in allied professions to meet with one another in a casual atmosphere!  Network with peers and celebrate Minnesota's outdoor environment!
