At the invitation of SAA President, Ray Gosselin, Laureen Snook, SALA President, attended the SAA President’s dinner earlier this year. The President’s dinner is the final event of the SAA’s Conference and Annual General Meeting and one which the architect have opened up to allied professional associations, such as Landscape Architecture, Interior Design and others. Laureen had the opportunity to engage with several architectural colleagues, including the new SAA President, Jeanna South. Opportunities to communicate with members of our allied professional associations are an important mandate of the SALA Council and lead to greater understanding of our individual strengths and common goals.
