Summer may be over, but architects, students, and design devotees can look forward to a camplike weekend of professional development, networking, and the great outdoors during this year’s Monterey Design Conference, to take place October 16 through 18 in Pacific Grove, California. Architectural Record is a media sponsor.

Since 1979, this biennial conference, organized by the American Institute of Architects,
 California Council, has given attendees the
opportunity to dine together, discuss issues, 
and rub shoulders with prominent architects at the rustic Julia Morgan–designed Asilomar campus overlooking a beautiful stretch of the Monterey Peninsula.
