Featured Opportunity: Foundation for Landscape Studies Announce Prizes for Landscape Publications
Just one of several opportunities listed on ASLA's new Opportunities and Events page.

The following announcement is posted on ASLA’s Opportunities and Events page, where users can find the latest information on everything from conferences and meetings to calls for papers, requests for proposals, and consulting opportunities. The new service also has the advantage of being “user generated,” meaning that users wishing to post content to the page can do so directly using a web-based form. Once a user has submitted the information it is placed in holding, reviewed by the web editor, and then approved for posting. This streamlined approach will help ensure the Opportunities and Events page will always contain the freshest, most relevant information for the profession. The page has recently been updated to support up to three attachments, allowing users to post guidelines, or other supporting material as a .PDF.

The Foundation for Landscape Studies has announced two new prizes for publications on landscape and garden design in English. The John Brinkerhoff Jackson Book Prize will be awarded to books that have made a significant contribution to the study and understanding of landscape and garden design.

The David R. Coffin Publication Grant is intended to support the production of a book that will make a significant contribution to the study and understanding of landscape history and environmental design. Both prizes will be awarded by a jury made up of members of the Board of Directors of the Foundation for Landscape Studies.  For further information, please consult the Foundations' web site at www.foundationforlandscapestudies.org.
