In a press statement delivered this week by the American Society of Landscape Architects, the organization announced they are canceling the annual conference that was set to take place in early October. Originally scheduled to be an in-person event taking place in Miami Beach, growing concerns over the spread of COVID-19 in states that have begun to re-open caused the organization to reconsider its plans.
ASLA President Wendy Miller, FASLA shares, "For the health and safety of everyone involved, ASLA is unfortunately compelled to cancel the Conference on Landscape Architecture. While we're all disappointed, an in-person conference is not possible this year, we now have a unique opportunity to rethink how we as landscape architects connect – to one another, to the Society, and to our profession as a whole."
With this cancellation, the conference organizers are keen on reworking their event programming to create a virtual program for the fall.
