2026 INASLA Golf Outing
An annual tradition returns for its 8th year at Topgolf! Enjoy an amateur friendly and socially-focused fundraiser of INASLA.
It's that time of the year for the annual tradition bringing together professionals from various design fields, clients, and vendors for a fun day of "golf". We are looking forward to gathering once again and we appreciate your continued support of this fundraiser.
This year’s fundraiser will once again boost the INASLA scholarship which is awarded to one Purdue University and one Ball State University student with an active membership in ASLA. We believe that this is only one of many ways to support our students that display a strong passion for Landscape Architecture. Our hope is that our committment to their growth translates to retaining talented individuals.
Thank you to our Title Sponsors, ESL Spectrum, Foreverlawn of Indy, Hunter/ FX Luminaire, and ASL Stone!

2026 Conference Call for Presentations
7/13/26: Announcing a Call for Presentations
We are excited to announce that the Indiana Chapter of ASLA is now accepting education proposals for the 2026 Conference on Landscape Architecture. The conference will be held on Friday, October 9th at the FORUM Event Center in Fishers Indiana. This call is open to landscape architecture professionals, educators, students, and allied professionals. If you are interested in presenting, participating in a panel, or hosting an event or tour, we encourage you to submit a proposal to be considered. If you are interested in submitting multiple proposals, please fill out a separate form for each one.
Conference Theme: Beyond the Drawing Board
Great design is only the beginning. While drawings communicate a vision, the true impact of landscape architecture is shaped by everything that follows—and everything that happens along the way.
This year's conference invites presentations that explore the people, processes, partnerships, and unexpected challenges that bring projects to life. We're looking for sessions that move beyond design theory to examine implementation, construction, maintenance, collaboration, advocacy, technology, public engagement, programming, leadership, research, and lessons learned from real-world experience.
Whether your story begins before the first sketch or continues long after the ribbon cutting, we want to hear how your work extends beyond the drawing board.
Download the submission form here
Please complete the submission form and submit it via email to conference@inasla.org.
Submission Deadline Friday, July 31, 2026 (11:59 PM EDT)
This proposal will be reviewed by our INASLA COLA committee. You will be notified of our decision no later than August 14th, 2026. Thank you for your interest!

EP Roundtable: Navigating LARE & Licensure
For those beginning or on their licensure journey, listen to a moderated conversation and participate in an open Q&A!
Join us for the first installment of our new Emerging Professionals Roundtable Series, designed to create space for early and mid-career landscape architects, as well as students, to connect, learn, and discuss topics relevant to professional growth.
Our inaugural session will focus on the licensure journey. Through a moderated conversation, panelists will share their experiences preparing for and navigating the LARE, balancing exam preparation with work and personal commitments, and overcoming challenges along the way.
Two panelists have recently completed the licensure process, while a third will offer the perspective of becoming licensed in another state. Our panelists also work across a variety of geographic contexts and economic sectors, providing a range of experiences and insights.
Featured panelists include:
Karina Kasmauskis, PLA, ASLA with Context Design
Estello Raganit, PLA, ASLA with City of Somerville, MA
Elise Stueve, PLA, ASLA with Fanning Howey
Following the discussion, attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and engage directly with the panelists during an open Q&A.
Whether you are just beginning to think about licensure, actively taking exams, or looking for strategies to stay motivated, this conversation is intended to provide practical advice and encouragement from those who have recently navigated the process themselves.
Food and refreshments will be provided, and attendees will be eligible for licensure-related raffle prizes.
This event marks the launch of what we hope will become an ongoing series of conversations for Emerging Professionals. We hope you'll join us as we build a community for sharing experiences, asking questions, and supporting one another throughout our careers.

One of ASLA’s signature advocacy events is ASLA Advocacy Day. Advocacy Day provides chapter members an opportunity to advocate before their federal legislators on behalf of issues important to the profession. This year, ASLA will schedule virtual meetings with legislators and congressional staff. According to the Congressional Management Foundation, virtual meetings have proven to be just as effective as in-person meetings and allow persons unable to travel to Washington, D.C. to participate in the federal legislative process.

INASLA Conference on Landscape Architecture
It's All Connected
This year’s conference will elevate the unique nature of our profession which lives at the intersection of horticulture, engineering, architecture, the arts, experiential design, storytelling, human behavior, ecology, spirituality, history, and culture. Our inspiration can come from anywhere because we see how all these things are connected in the world. Project types can vary greatly; yet we are asked to flex into each project – intrinsically bringing a wholistic point of view to both discover and “connect the dots”.
