Summary

Arc House is the hub for the Arc community, bringing together discussions, events, content, and regional chapter opportunities. Alongside it, the Architects program recognizes contributors with roles, visibility, and exclusive opportunities. Join, participate, and grow your impact in the Arc ecosystem.

We are excited to officially introduce Arc House, the new home for the Arc community, as we continue to evolve the Arc ecosystem. Alongside it, we are launching the Architects program, our community program built to recognize those shaping Arc’s ecosystem.

This is a major step in bringing our global community into one shared space and creating a clear path for deeper involvement and impact.

Welcome to Arc House

Arc House is the central hub for everything happening in the Arc ecosystem. In it, you will find:

  • Educational content, videos, articles, and ongoing discussions
  • Virtual and in-person event registration
  • Hackathon details
  • Community programs, spotlights, and announcements
  • Member activity tracking and recognition
  • Community interest groups and regional meetups

Arc House is where builders connect, learn, collaborate, and contribute.

Whether you are here to ship code, host events, mentor others, or stay plugged into what’s happening across the ecosystem, Arc House is your home base.

Introducing the Architects program

The Architects program is our long-awaited community ambassador program.

It is designed to recognize those who actively contribute to the growth and success of the Arc ecosystem.

This is not an application-based program. If you are contributing, participating, and showing up for the community, you will earn points and grow within the program.

The Architects program includes:

  • A tiered system with clear progression (e.g., recognition, badges, and benefits)
  • A points-based framework that highlights meaningful contributions
  • The opportunity to apply for roles such as Community Moderator, Meetup Organizer, Technical Speaker, Regional Lead, and more to come
  • Exclusive networking opportunities, project visibility, swag, VIP event invites, and more

Explore the full breakdown of tiers, benefits, roles, and ways to earn points here.

All Architects program information will live inside Arc House so your activity, recognition, and progression will be visible and transparent.

How to become an Architect

The Architects program will officially kick off this week.

On April 2, 2026 at 1pm ET, we will host a community hangout to walk through:

  • What the Architects program is, what’s included, and what’s to come
  • Program tiers, benefits, opportunities, and roles
  • How to get started

This session is the best way to get oriented and ask questions live, though it will be recorded for those unable to join. Register here.

Arc House is where our community gathers. The Architects program is how we recognize the people building it.

We cannot wait to connect and see what you build!

See you at the House.
