Mirror Image
For more than 40 years, AIA Baltimore and the Baltimore Architecture Foundation have been pleased to present an annual lecture series devoted to design and architecture in Baltimore, thanks to the loyal support of the architecture community.
We are excited to continue this tradition with the 2025 Lecture Series, exploring the theme, Mirror Image. This spring we will explore cities that mirror Baltimore geographically, socio-economically, environmentally, demographically, or culturally. Our discussion will build off of the shared experiences of cities that, like Baltimore, share goals related to resilient urban waterfronts, spatial justice, and alternative means of development. Speakers will explore aspects of Baltimore’s urban condition that are reflected in other cities across the globe.
ABOUT THE LECTURES
We are pleased to continue our partnership with the Maryland Chapter of ASLA to provide 1.0 LA CES HSW and a discounted member ticket for every lecture.
We will also continue to provide discounted member tickets to NOMA members, and free admission to students.
