To develop an exciting, relevant Continuing Education program for the 2024 Conference, taking place May 22 to 24 at the Niagara Falls Convention Centre, the OAA is seeking unique proposals that exemplify what is current and upcoming for Ontario’s architectural profession and the public it serves. Like this year, the Association is exploring both traditional classroom lectures as well as experiential learning—in-the-field case studies around the Niagara region.

The 2024 Conference theme is Housing: Pushing the Envelope, and aims to bring together a diverse array of architecture experts to explore innovative ideas and solutions for designing safe, healthy, inclusive, and sustainable spaces. From cutting-edge technologies to regenerative building principles, and from imaginative adaptive reuse to rethought densities, the goal is to delve into the latest trends and best practices. With a focus on addressing housing challenges in diverse communities—including homes, hospitality, and healthcare—the 2024 Conference will be a unique opportunity to learn, network, and contribute to the collective approach toward creating equitable housing in Ontario and beyond.
