Here at ASLA, our first order of business is to officially open our Call for Presentations for the 2021 ASLA Conference on Landscape Architecture in Nashville. We are looking for education proposals that will help drive change in landscape architecture and provide solutions to everyday challenges that are informed by practice and research.

Help us shape the 2021 education program by submitting a proposal through our online system by Wednesday, February 24, 2021, at 11:59 p.m. PT. 

The 2021 ASLA Conference on Landscape Architecture is scheduled to take place in November in Nashville, Tennessee. Of course, we don’t know what will happen with the COVID-19 pandemic by then – and ASLA will be monitoring the situation carefully as we plan a conference that is safe for everyone. But there’s one thing we do know – whatever form our conference takes this year, we will not compromise our standards for delivering the high-quality, well-rounded educational experience that everyone has come to expect. Your submissions make that possible.

All education session proposals are reviewed by the Annual Conference Education Advisory Committee. Sessions will be organized into topics most relevant to the practice of landscape architecture and cross-sector collaborations. Please visit the submission site to learn more about the 2021 education tracks, submission criteria, review process, and key dates.

If you’re an ASLA member, make sure you have your unique ASLA Member ID or username handy – you should use it to log into the submission system.

Have a great beginning to the new year and thank you, in advance, for helping us make this year’s conference great.

Best,

Tom Mroz, FASLA
ASLA President
