Members of AIA Youngstown, along with guests, colleagues, and community friends gathered at the Blind Bear Scratch Kitchen in Youngstown for a late afternoon of networking, camaraderie, food, and beverages. Attended by seveal dozen members, the event provided members of the design and construction industry the opportunity to gather away from the workplace in a casual atmosphere and take advantage of the emerging spring weather. This event was the first of several member outings for this summer, with the next being the 2026 AIA Youngstown Gold Outing to be held at the Trumbull Country Club on June 29, 2026.
