AIA Iowa Convention 2027
Rapids is looking forward to the 2027 AIA Iowa Convention, September 23–24 at the Iowa Events Center in Des Moines. Each year, this convention brings together architects, designers, and industry experts for two days of learning, networking, and new ideas in design.
Thoughtful design is the foundation of every successful commercial kitchen and bar. Our team partners with architects early in the process to plan foodservice spaces that improve labor efficiency, support the way staff work, and hold up for years to come.
We look forward to connecting with attendees and talking about how smart design can shape the future of foodservice spaces.
