UAP SoCal History

After the founding of UAPCAL 116 in 2008 (based in Northern California), under the presidency of the late Arch. Eduardo Quezon, a vision to reach out to Filipino Architects based in Southern California became one of the first and foremost goals in their objectives.

To realize a separate and independent chapter in Southern California would best meet the needs of our colleagues in the area. This move would prove to be beneficial for some who reside in the Southland who were holding positions of responsibilities with the Northern California Chapter, thus, making them more effective in the service and pursuit of the UAP’s mission and aspirations. From a small group of Filipino architects based all over Southern California, informal gatherings and meetings were held, from one place to another that attracted other Filipino architects, who came and joined in the formal establishment of the UAP-SOCAL Chapter.

The formation of the United Architects of the Philippines Southern California Chapter was formally granted by the United Architects of the Philippines National Board of Directors on April 26, 2011. Its chartering and first-ever induction of officers and members was held on October 16, 2011, at the Almansor Court in Alhambra, California.

The UAP-SOCAL chapter continues to grow and reach out to ALL Filipino Architects in Southern California in an attempt to unite them in the spirit of service, fellowship, and camaraderie.
