Celebrating its Centennial Year in 1999, ASLA currently represents more than 12,000 members in 47 chapters across the United States with headquarters in Washington, DC. Private, public, and academic practitioners have a professional home at ASLA as do international practitioners and members of related professions.

The Washington Chapter (WASLA) was established in 1973 and includes approximately 330 members around the state. The chapter holds up to seven chapter meetings through the year, as well as an annual Expo/Trade Show, annual university student award competitions and a biennial Chapter Awards Banquet.

WASLA helps fund student scholarships and the Architects & Engineers Legislative Council, and produces a quarterly newsletter and website to keep members and others informed about issues and activities pertaining to ASLA and the profession.

WASLA members often participate in meetings and events with allied professional groups such as the American Institute of Architects and the Washington Association of Landscape Professionals, and volunteer their expertise for community assistance projects and public events such as the Northwest Flower and Garden Show.

Landscape architecture is the art and science of analysis, planning, design, management, preservation and rehabilitation of the land. The scope of the profession includes site planning, garden design, environmental restoration, town or urban planning, park and recreation planning, regional planning, and historic preservation. Practitioners share a commitment of achieving a balance between preservation, use and management of the country’s resources.
