Help Plan the AIA Kickball Tournament

With COVID-19, we've had to reschedule a lot of events and this includes the AIA Golf Tournament which has moved to June 15th and this means we need to move the Kickball Tournament originally scheduled for June 13th.

Are you willing to serve on this year's committee? We will meet via Zoom teleconference for the time being and will be focusing on the date and location of this year's tournament.

Email Melissa at [email protected] if you are willing to volunteer for this year's committee!

Architects Blitz the Capitol Cancelled

Architects Blitz the Capitol is cancelled which means we had to cancel on our venue, Prairie Ales and our caterer, Prairie Gypsies... both small businesses. The good news... you can still support them!

Prairie Ales is open for TO GO BEER SALES (a change the ABLE Commission made effective through April 17th). That's right, you can swing by and get your favorite beer on your way home from work! Prairie is located in the 8th Street Market at 3 NE 8th Street.

The Prairie Gypsies Carry-out Entrée is an affordable and delicious entrée serving or soup available daily, Monday through Saturday. Here's how it works: you may order using the online form , or call us at 525-3013 or drop by our retail location at 415 NW 30th between the hours of 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, and Saturday, 10:00 a.m. - 4 p.m. (MORE INFORMATION)

HB3098: AIA Oklahoma is still actively opposing this bill and will continue to keep the membership informed on how you can assist in those efforts. Be sure to watch your email for updates. Questions? Email Melissa at [email protected].
