ABOUT //

This committee essentially represents the voice of the profession through advocacy with events, position papers and debate and discourse forums.

Such programs developed by this committee include: Community Awards, “Architects Roll-Up Their Sleeves” – Blood Drive, Feed Your Soul, Architects on Wheels. At least one program a year is also developed to cultural and international diversity amongst the profession. You can find out more information about these programs and many more under Programs.

BOWLS TRANSFORMED, HELPING FEED THE HUNGRY

E-mail Print PDF

SAVE THE DATE > NOV 6 Friday

7:00pm - 11:00pm
Flux Design | 811 East Vienna Avenue | Milwaukee, WI 53233

As a founding and continuous sponsor of Feed Your Soul, AIA Milwaukee would like to invite you to FEED YOUR SOUL, 2009 featuring the infamous bowl and art auction, great music, Kho Thi Dance company and food by Water Buffalo.

Feed Your Soul is an opportunity for people to respond to hunger in our community, while enriching their lives with art. As a symbol of plenty, simple wooden bowls are transformed by members of Milwaukee’s design community into innovative and original works of art. The bowls and artwork are highlighted at an auction and celebration called Feed Your Soul.

Since 2004, when the event began, we have been able to donate over $157,000.00 to Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin (formerly known as America's Second Harvest of Wisconsin). Last year our attendance was over 600 people. Our goal is to increase both attendance and monetary totals each year.

All proceeds benefit Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin, the largest private non-profit distributor of food in Wisconsin. Feeding America serves 235,000 people annually, 37% of whom are children. To serve such a large number of people, Feeding America partners with 1,100 food pantries, meal programs and shelters throughout eastern Wisconsin.
