Get ready to break down the system design behind drip irrigation. This fast‑paced, hands‑on overview breaks down the real‑world differences between inline and point‑source systems—where they shine, where they struggle, and how to choose the right setup without overthinking it.   Perfect for Landscape Architects and irrigation pros who want to boost efficiency, cut water waste, and make smarter system decisions with confidence. It’s practical, technical, and just fun enough to keep you wide awake.

Movie Night: Wilding

with the May Arboretum Society

You are warmly invited to join us for a special screening of the award-winning UK documentary Wilding followed by an engaging community conversation inspired by the film. This special event is hosted in conjunction with the May Arboretum Society.

About the Film
Wilding tells the remarkable true story of the Knepp Estate in West Sussex, England, where a struggling, intensively farmed landscape was transformed through a bold rewilding experiment. 

Facing financial ruin, the estate’s owners made the radical decision to step back and let nature take the lead allowing free-roaming animals and natural processes to restore the land. What followed was extraordinary: the return of rare species, the regeneration of ecosystems, and a powerful example of what becomes possible when nature is given space to recover.

Following the screening, we invite you to stay for a guided conversation exploring how the ideas in Wilding connect to our own communities.

BRDI and NVASLA with the Nevada Museum of Art

How can landscape architects respond to novelty in their designed landscapes so that maintenance becomes an extension of design? This question requires an experimental approach that embraces the inherent tension between intention and materiality. Michael Geffel, Principal at LND LAB describes the theory, inspiration, and pragmatism that led to the founding of LND LAB, his design consultancy, which reframes maintenance and operations as tools to socially activate and ecologically regenerate fallow landscapes over time.  

This is part of the Black Rock Design Institute (BRDI) lecture series for cross-disciplinary design professionals.   

Discounted price to members of ($10)  ASLA to honor World Landscape Architecture Month WLAM and NVASLA's contribution to making the program possible.

*Join a hosted beer and social hour at 5 pm. The talk will begin at 6 pm.

Las Vegas is at an inflection point. As water scarcity intensifies and design standards evolve, the case for native and regionally adaptive landscaping has never been stronger — yet barriers in procurement, policy, and perception continue to slow adoption. This panel brings together leading voices across design, horticulture, policy, and practice to explore what it truly means to design with the Mojave, not against it.

Join the Placemaking Committee for a dynamic, moderated conversation that unpacks the history and aesthetics of native versus introduced plant material, the real-world costs and maintenance demands of native landscaping, the current challenges in sourcing and procurement, and the evolving policies shaping what’s possible on our sites and in our communities.
