AIA Nebraska has developed a statewide partnership program to enable sponsors and supporters an opportunity to promote their products or services through all AIA Nebraska. The partnership program will coincide with the new AIA Nebraska website (www.aia.org/nebraska) - enabling partners to reach the 650 Nebraska architects and others in the design industry through events and promotion through our website and weekly newsletter.
