International Women's Day is Coming
All are welcome for a party to celebrating International Women's Day (IWD) and the women of the lighting industry! Join us for yummy food, cocktails and mocktails, and live music! We look forward to socializing with all our friends and allies from all corners of the industry!
Celebrate International Women's Day -
Monday, March 6th - 6 - 9 PM | 1239 Broadway, 2nd FL | New York, NY
>> rsvp here!
Every year, IWD selects a theme to bring focus to the day, and this year's theme is to?Embrace Equity. Equity isn't just a nice-to-have, it's a must-have. Equity means creating an inclusive world and we can all play a part. Collective activism is what drives change - from grassroots action comes wide-scale momentum. When we embrace equity, we embrace diversity, and we embrace inclusion. Equality is the goal, and equity is the means to get there. Join us (WEDNESDAY, March 8th) as we?#EmbraceEquity ?this International Women's Day - and always!
Join us on social media Wednesday, March 8th by posting a picture of yourself striking the pose - and make sure to tag us on Instagram and LinkedIn @womeninlightinganddesign (IG) @Women in Lighting + Design (WILD) (linkedIn) #IWD2023 #EmbraceEquity #WomeninLightingDesign !

>> #EmbraceEquity by supporting EmbraceRace with WILD NYC??
>> create a wild explosion of color at LEDucation on March 8th
In support of our goals to #EmbraceEquity , WILD NYC is hosting a charity drive to support EmbraceRace , a community of adults of all colors who support efforts to raise and guide children to become inclusive, informed, and brave when it comes to race.
There is a growing body of research and evidence that makes clear that children’s racial sensibilities begin to form in infancy, that almost all children develop racial and other biases by kindergarten, and that those biases become fairly entrenched by adolescence. And yet, most national organizations dedicated to children’s racial learning direct their resources mainly to middle and high school educators. There are too few resources for younger children available for parents, grandparents or other caregivers or for early and elementary childhood educators. EmbraceRace helps fill that gap.
