Beverly Willis Architecture Foundation Opens New HQ
Leading national women’s advocacy organization the Beverly Willis Architecture Foundation (BWAF) has announced the opening of The Bev, a new multiuse space and the foundation’s headquarters offices, located in Manhattan. The group’s new, women-focused community meeting spaces offer “a beacon for gender equity and innovation” dedicated to incubating firms, producing educational media, and hosting strategic gatherings to advance and elevate women in their work lives, says BWAF executive director Cynthia Phifer Kracauer, who spearheaded the initiative.
Created as a community hub for transformative partnerships, the new space serves as a dynamic gathering and activity center driven by the Beverly Willis Architecture Foundation’s leadership and influence. The Bev offers 2,000 square feet for various public and internal uses, as well as a new East Coast home base for women architects, engineers, construction (AEC) executives and allied professionals. This fresh nexus of activity already hosted BWAF’s noted “Emerging Leaders” program and new interview recordings for its acclaimed audio documentary series, New Angle: Voice. BWAF has also debuted its first exhibition, Pioneering Women of American Architecture, at The Bev.
