be recognized in an annual banquet, be published in the highly distributed folio awards book, as well as have the projects spotlighted

The ILASLA Marketing Committee is officially launching the Marketing Committee Grant Program!
The goal of the Grant Program is to provide financial resources to develop grassroots projects that help implement the ILASLA Strategic Plan and advance the profession of landscape architecture. Though this program, associations and individuals may receive matching funds for projects through ILASLA. In line with the Strategic Plan, the project topic categories are Ethic, Policy, Practice, Information and Effectiveness. The guidelines and application are available on the ILASLA website under “News and Events.” Applications are accepted throughout the year and will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
