Merch for the Mission!
The Women In Architecture Committee is proud to launch our 2025 t-shirt sale. Proceeds will go to covering the costs for licensure exams for aspiring minority female architects. Please help us support these hard working women. 2025 design in purple now available! Also available in 2024 lilac or 2023 purple or charcoal gray while supplies last.
Our popular “Shape the Conversation” pins are in stock! These became popular with the first major AIA Austin WiA event in 2016, the Shape the Conversation exhibit, where the centerpiece was a huge multi-faceted jewel that represented shaping the conversation around what it means to be a woman in the field of architecture and design, and recognizing their influential work.
WiA stickers and hats are also still available!
Order below and pick up your merch at AIA Austin, 801 W. 12th St. on Mondays or Tuesdays from 9AM -5PM. Sorry, shipping is not available. Scroll down to see images of items.
