Our committee's mission is to increase the public's understanding of the Minnesota Architect's value by providing resources, information, and education to the media and the public. We publicize what Minnesota architects and AIA Minnesota committees are already doing and we look for opportunities to reach out and advertise, partner with or sponsor additional activities.

Chair: Matt Johnson, AIA and Jon Crump, AIA
