In addition to providing opportunities for networking, mentorship, innovative and informative programming and an array of critical professional resources to our members, we provide a unique way for women to connect with one another no matter where they are in their career and no matter which forms of design they are practicing or pursuing.

The Association has a rich history dating back to 1915.
The Founders were four female architectural students at Washington University in St. Louis: Mae Steinmesch, Helen Milius, Angela Burdeau and Jane Pelton.
After being denied entry into the men's architectural fraternity, these pioneering women organized their own society, called La Confrerie Alongine.
Upon discovering interest from female architectural students at other campuses, in 1922 a national student association was formed that they called, Alpha Alpha Gamma.
