Resilience is no longer a future goal — it is a daily design imperative. This edition of ASLA-NY’s 4 CEUs & a Beer, Resiliency Toolbox. explores the tools shaping climate-responsive landscapes across New York City and beyond.

From planting strategies in dense urban corridors, suburban communities, and forest systems to citywide infrastructure frameworks addressing stormwater, cloudbursts, Bluebelts, and coastal adaptation, this half-day symposium connects ecological thinking with built implementation. Speakers from public agencies and leading design practices will share practical strategies, real-world case studies, and lessons learned across scales.

Join us at the Center for Architecture to earn 4 CEUs, engage in dialogue, and connect with peers committed to building resilient landscapes.

ASLA-NY Announces the Recipients of the 2025 ASLA-NY Grants

ASLA-NY is proud to announce the recipients of the 2025 ASLA-NY Grants for the ASLA National Conference and the LARE!

This year, the program received thirteen outstanding applications representing a wide range of backgrounds and experiences. We are excited to recognize two recipients who demonstrated the strongest commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion—and the potential for future leadership in advancing these values.

First launched in 2022 to support BIPOC emerging professionals, the ASLA-NY Grant Program has since expanded eligibility to include professionals at all career stages. Selection decisions are made without regard to race, ethnicity, or gender, and applicants who identify as Black, Indigenous, or as a Person of Color are always strongly encouraged to apply.

Each year, the National Conference Grant provides $1,500 toward the ASLA Conference on Landscape Architecture, and the LARE Grant offers $1,000 toward exam registration and preparation.

👏 Congratulations to this year’s recipients, and thank you to all who applied!
