BOOK SALE
Annual event.
The Book Sale is a unique event where we make available a curated selection of used architecture and design books at budget-friendly prices. This initiative aims to provide students, design professionals, and arts enthusiasts with an opportunity to acquire valuable resources. All the books featured in the sale have been generously donated, contributing to the repurposing of materials and saving resources of production.
AXP HOURS
Architectural Experience Program hours.
For volunteers who are architectural license candidates, the Architectural Experience Program (AXP), administered by NCARB, is a requirement in most jurisdictions for professional licensure. AWBS is an NCARB pre-approved Community-Based Design Center opportunity - When volunteering at AWBS you may earn up to 320 AXP hours for your volunteer service.

Committee Meetings
Hosted once each month.
Every first Tuesday of the month, AWBS hosts its Project Committee meeting, providing a public platform for our team members to discuss ongoing projects and share updates on their progress. These gatherings occasionally feature distinguished guests from the architecture and non-profit sectors, shedding light on relevant topics or current projects. We welcome everyone who is interested in learning about AWBS's impact, and we especially encourage potential volunteers to attend, offering them the opportunity to discover more about our organization and how they can contribute.
