ICAA and the Traditional Architecture Group (TAG) Announce Formal Alliance

On Friday, July 15, 2011 the Institute of Classical Architecture & Art announced a formal alliance with the Traditional Architecture Group, London (TAG), a linked group of the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA).

The Traditional Architecture Group is the only organization of it’s kind in the UK with over 400 members within the RIBA community, and leading classical and traditional architecture practices in the UK. Through the alliance, both organizations aim to promote shared goals through education, publication, and advocacy directed toward increasing the public understanding of architecture, urbanism, and the allied arts.

Peter Pennoyer, Chairman of the ICAA and Alireza Sagharchi, Chairman of TAG, said “Our formal alliance builds upon common goals and shared objectives for creating more sustainable architecture and urbanism. Our intention is to develop initiatives linking together ideas and best practices of the United States and the United Kingdom. We are planning joint educational programs on both sides of the Atlantic including courses, symposia, drawing programs, and debates. We look forward to working together on our mutual interests”.
