Building Through the Decades

NRVHBA's 50th Anniversary & Annual Excellence in Building Awards Gala

Five decades of building. Countless connections. One incredible industry.

Celebrate Building Through the Decades with us at the NRVHBA's Annual Excellence in Building Awards Gala! This milestone evening brings together the people who have shaped our industry, recognizes excellence in building, and celebrates the accomplishments and connections that will help move our industry forward for the next 50 years.

As the NRVHBA's premier industry event of the year, this is a night to celebrate in style. Join us at the University Club at Lane Stadium in Blacksburg for an evening of awards, dinner, music, and dancing as we look back at where we've been and celebrate where we're headed.

Come dressed in your favorite decade! Whether you channel the glamour of the 1920s, the bold styles of the '80s, or another decade entirely, bring your best look. We'll be awarding prizes for Best Dressed and Best Dressed Duo, so consider this your excuse to have a little fun with it!
