Finish February Strong

While there's a bit more time before ASLA Professional Awards registration is due (the deadline has been extended to March 1), the deadline for ASLA's Call for Presentations is this Thursday, February 22, and it will not be extended—so if you started a session proposal and haven't wrapped it up yet, you have two more days to do so!

Besides all that ASLA has going on (have you seen all the webinars we have coming up?), use this week, and next week's leap day, to get a head start on these other upcoming deadlines, all from ASLA’s RFQs, Opportunities, and Events page:

Deadline: February 22, 2024 A Request for Proposal (RFP) has been released for landscape design services for the East Bayfront Greenway Trail system. This program looks to transform vacant, abandoned lots into vibrant public parks.

Deadline: February 26, 2024 The three-day congress—taking place September 4-6 in Istanbul with the theme "Code Red for Earth"—intends to discuss anthropogenic impacts on the Earth system and establish scenarios by forming an action-oriented interaction ground rather than only (re)pointing out the problems.

Deadline: March 1, 2024 The National Capital Planning Commission is seeking consultant services to prepare "A New Pennsylvania Avenue Plan" for the 1.2-mile corridor between the White House and US Capitol, the adjoining 40 acres of public space, and the adjacent blocks and intersecting streets.

Deadline: March 8, 2024 The Village of Homer Glen is requesting proposals from qualified and experienced firms with backgrounds in landscape architecture, park planning, or similar professions to provide an updated Master Plan for the Village’s Heritage Park.

Deadline: March 11, 2024 The Better Block Foundation, in partnership with Common Era and Humancraft, announces "Creating Connections," a design competition aimed at addressing the growing epidemic of loneliness by exploring the impact of design on how people connect with others, the universe, and themselves.

Deadline for submissions: March 30, 2024 Organized annually, the awards showcase outstanding projects demonstrating exceptional creativity, sustainability, and environmental impact.
