Greenville Technical College’s, Brashier Campus is gaining a huge upgrade to their welding program. By Fall of 2026 the GTC Center for Welding and Automation Excellence will open for classes. Designed by Goodwyn Mills Cawood (GMC), and being constructed by Thompson Turner Construction, this building will be a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to showcasing and advancing the latest technology and tools of the welding trade. With a nationwide shortage in welding expertise this building is needed more than ever to train the future of the welding trade.

AIA Greenville is dedicated to building a diverse talent pipeline for local architects. Every year, AIAG provides a scholarship to one student at Greenville Technical College majoring in Architectural Engineering Technology that covers half of their tuition costs. All of the proceeds from this building tour will go into a scholarship fund for a GTC student this year.  Any contribution is appreciated as we work together towards a goal of $1,200. When signing up for the event, be sure to also donate towards the GTC student scholarship fund. 

Join us for lunch, sponsored by Thompson Turner Construction, a tour of the building, and a chance to support GTC students that are shaping our profession. Register HERE!
