MCAA and BIA Partner To Develop Masonry Wall Of Fame Award

The Mason Contractors Association of America and the Brick Industry Association are thrilled to announce a collaboration to create a new award that will recognize those who install masonry products. The Masonry Wall Of Fame Award will expand MASONRY Magazine’s popular interview series of the same name.Â

“We have been building a great relationship with BIA over the past few years, and the Masonry Wall Of Fame Award is a culmination of our work so far. It’s about time that the industry had an award specifically dedicated to recognizing those who spend their time ‘on the wall.’ These people are creating structures that will last forever,” said Jeff Buczkiewicz, MCAA President and CEO.Â

Masonry Wall Of Fame Award details, such as nomination, voting, and presentation specifics, are still being worked out. It’s expected that the Masonry Wall Of Fame Award will be presented by both groups during the World of Concrete starting in 2024.Â

"Through BIA’s partnership with MCAA, we have witnessed the unparalleled dedication and craftsmanship of mason contractors who bring clay brick to life. The Masonry Wall of Fame Award stands as a testament to our shared admiration for their work in creating masonry structures that stand the test of time and inspire generations to come,” said Ray Leonhard, BIA President and CEO.

For more information on specifics regarding the Masonry Wall Of Fame Award, please stay tuned to respective MCAA and BIA websites and newsletters. We look forward to recognizing those who keep MASONRY STRONG.Â
