Save the Garment Center Meeting
By admins | December 7, 2009
The above video is from last month’s Save the Garment Center rally. The rally was a huge success but really just a first step in the efforts to save our industry. The Save the Garment Center organization is moving forward with the next phase and is holding a town hall meeting Tuesday morning to discuss the issue in-depth. So please, if you can, head on over before work to Parson’s and show your support. Here are all the details:
Join the Board of Directors of SAVE THE GARMENT CENTER on DECEMBER 8TH for our first official “town-hall style” meeting at Parsons The New School for Design. The first half of the meeting will be an informative presentation about the launch of SAVE THE GARMENT CENTER as a non-profit trade association. What you’ll learn:
• Our official platform and mission
• Our action-oriented agenda
• Organization membership and how to become involved
• What’s been accomplished to date
• What is happening in NYC on the government level
• What is happening in Washington DC on the government level
• Where to buy SAVE THE GARMENT CENTER tee shirts
The second half of the meeting is up to you. We want to hear the voices of the garment district in an open-mic format. Tell us about the challenges you are facing, and how our organization can better serve your needs. All ideas and points of view will be welcomed.
