Architectural Association, Inc. Statement of Public Benefit
The Architectural Association, Inc. is a registered charity and a company
limited by guarantee. The Association's principal activity is the operation of a
school of architecture and a learned society. The primary object of the
Association, as stated in its Memorandum of Association is ‘for the public
benefit to promote and afford facilities for the study of Architecture ...’.
In fulfilment of its objects, the Association of members and the school are
inextricably bound together in the promotion and advancement of learning.
Through its school, the Architectural Association acts as a forum for ideas open
to a global architectural community and, being a major centre for debate, it
offers a principal venue in London for an unparalleled public programme or
architectural lectures, symposia and exhibitions, together with accompanying
publications. Membership of the Association is open to all architects and others
connected with or interested in the allied arts, professions or disciplines. The
diversity and international character of its membership is a significant source
of the Association's strength and vitality.
The Architectural Association is continually seeking to enhance the provision of
its public programmes through an ambitious schedule of free evening lectures and
exhibitions of student work, and the work of established and lesser-known
architects. The school’s bursaries and scholarship programmes continue to be
robust and to at least partially fund approximately 25 per cent of its
undergraduate students each year. The Architectural Association has also begun
work to improve the cataloguing of materials in its archive, and to widen access
to these materials through promoting the Architectural Association’s collection
to others in the scholarly community. While use of the Association's Library is
free to members, it is open to non-members for a minimal fee. The Architectural
Association and its Trustees are committed to the provision of public benefit
and have prioritised the Association’s continued enhancements in this area for
the year ahead.
