Winners Announced: 2018 International Awards Program for Religious Art and Architecture
The 2018 awards program continued the trend from the previous year of worship environment designs relating to the context of their extended communities. The jury also noted the preference for natural materials in worship environments, and inventive design solutions to address tight budgets.

The 2019 Awards Program opens on April 1, 2019.
Call for Nominations: Conover Award
The Elbert M. Conover Memorial Award recognizes non-architects for their contributions to religious architecture. The award is open to all non-architects who have demonstrated a passion for and dedication to quality worship and sacred spaces, fostered spiritual values, and promoted a cross-denominational community focused on religious arts and architecture.
Recipients must have worked with architects during the design and construction of religious projects—for example, helping to secure funding and support for sacred spaces.
Nomination deadline is March 7, 2019.
