ASLA Professional Practice Network (PPN) leaders and members share their experiences and expertise as authors for The Field blog and as presenters for ASLA Online Learning webinars all throughout the year, but for a few very special days each fall, PPNs also organize in-person gatherings at the ASLA Conference on Landscape Architecture.  

If you are heading to Washington, D.C., next month, the PPN meetings are an ideal way to see the PPNs in action and get a sense of what these practice area-focused groups for ASLA members are all about. 

Make the most of your PPN experience at the conference by exploring what’s planned and get ready to make new connections in D.C.:

You are welcome to attend as many PPN events as you like.
