    For instance, these programs are CRAN sponsored:

    • EV102 - Find Your Community at Philly and Beyond!
      May 18 | 6-8PM | The Racquet Club of Philadelphia | Learn More
      Kick off your convention experience! Connect with first time and returning attendees who share your interests at this new event as you indulge in festive cocktails and hors d'oeuvres and partake in fun activities all while reveling in unique architectural details of the venue. *This event takes place of last year's CRAN/SPP/HKC Reception.
    • EV213 - CRAN Forum: Focusing Exclusively on the Practice of Residential Architecture
      May 19 | 1:30-3PM | Learn More
      Join the annual moderated, collaborative, and interactive forum hosted by the AIA Custom Residential Architects' Network. Discover insights and anecdotes about the challenges and triumphs faced by today's residential architects, from a knowledge community that provides support, advocacy, and education to everyone involved in custom residential design.

    And these programs while not sponsored are being presented by CRAN Members (and therefore probably of interest to other CRANnies):

    Friday @ 3:30 pm (Jared Banks, AIA)

    FR310
    Friday @ 2:00 pm (James Walbridge, AIA)
     
    I'm sure there are more!
