The Institute of Classical Architecture & Art (ICAA) is an American nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing the appreciation and practice of traditional architecture and its allied arts by engaging with educators, professionals, students, and enthusiasts. It does so through education, publication, awards, and advocacy. The institute was formed in 2002 with the merger of two nonprofit organizations: The Institute of Classical Architecture (founded in 1991), and Classical America (founded in 1968).^[1]

In addition to its New York City headquarters, the institute maintains fifteen regional chapters, intended to extend the reach of its public service. Each chapter organizes its own programming to reflect the interests of its members, and the architectural traditions of its region.

ICAA's membership represents a diverse cross-section of the building arts, including architects, interior designers, patrons, builders, and artisans. According to the institute's website, its members benefit from the institute's local and national programs and from the networking opportunities that membership offers, and the institute improves its programs by responding to the needs and interests of its membership.^[1]
