If you've been looking for an opportunity to connect with experienced architects, ask questions, explore career paths, or simply expand your professional network, we'd love to have you join us for AIA Maine's first Speed Mentoring event.

Whether you previously expressed interest in being mentored through our mentorship survey, are a member of the Emerging Professionals Committee, or are just looking to connect with colleagues in the profession, this event is for you.

Event Details

• Date: Wednesday, September 23 (Rain Date: Thursday, September 24)

• Time: 5:30–7:30 PM

• Location: AIA Maine Board President, Jessie Carroll's home in Westbrook, Maine (address will be provided upon registration)

We'll kick off the evening with pizza and informal networking beginning at 5:30 PM before transitioning into the Speed Mentoring session around 6:00 PM.

Here's how it works:

• Enjoy pizza and meet fellow attendees.

• Rotate between experienced architect mentors every few minutes.

• Ask questions, hear different perspectives, and make valuable professional connections.

• Continue the conversations afterward during informal networking.

Whether you're a student, recently licensed, working toward licensure, changing career paths, or simply looking for guidance from experienced professionals, you'll leave with new ideas, new connections, and a broader perspective on the profession.

There is no preparation required—just bring your curiosity and your questions!

Space is limited to help keep conversations meaningful, so we encourage you to register early.
