SAY IT LOUD exhibition has been invited to feature Women and Diverse Designers of Nebraska by AIA Nebraska and RDG Planning & Design in Omaha. In line with our mission to elevate the contributions of women and diverse designers, architect, engineers and planners, we are inviting you to submit.

​

To date, our SAY IT LOUD exhibitions have been viewed by an estimate total 35,000 visitors since January 2017. From inception, multiple online publications (such as Curbed and The Architects Newspaper) with large subscription bases have helped promote the exhibitions further expanding its impact. One featured firm expressed an increase in business which they attributed to being featured in SAY IT LOUD.
