SMALL FIRM COLLABORATIVE


Small Firm Collaborative – A Lunch Event

Small firms represent a significant portion of the Panhandle's architectural landscape. However, the diverse roles that small firm owners and employees often take on can lead to their interests being overlooked and their contributions undervalued. This collaborative event aims to connect small firms to discuss their needs and create a supportive environment for social interaction and collaboration—an opportunity often taken for granted in larger firms.

Our Goals:

  1. Advocate for Small Firms: We aim to promote the value of small firms both within the AIA and to the public, advancing the mutual interests of architects practicing in smaller settings.
  2. Foster Idea Exchange: We seek to establish a safe space for sharing ideas and information, helping all small firms thrive and discover new ways to engage clients.
  3. Build a Collaborative Community: We envision a community where small firms can come together socially, discuss challenges and successes, and collaborate on projects or designs when a single firm may find a task too daunting.

Join us for this discussion to explore how we can strengthen our community and elevate our collective goals and interests.



Thursday, October 24

WINE & WELD 

Blue Coral invites you to attend a presentation on Tig welding VS. Mig welding. During the presentation we will explain what Tig welding is, what Mig welding is, the difference in equipment, and why you would choose one over the other in any given situation. Shortly after the presentation we will allow attendees to participate in Tig welding. Each station will be manned by a trained Blue Coral Welder/Fabricator. The attendee will be presented with the proper safety equipment and briefly trained on how to weld a "bead." Proceeding the training the attendee will do their best to weld a straight "bead." At the end of this, the welders/fabricators will vote on the beads, selecting the top three, each of which will receive a prize. The event includes wine tasting, live music, and a food truck on site.

Attire: Closed-toed shoes; long hair to be pulled back during welding; safety equipment will be provided.
