PAST EVENTS 


Student Career Day 2013           

Student Career Day was held on April 5, 2013 9AM -4PM at Ardy’s Gallery of Window Coverings. The collaborative day of activities was full of opportunities to learn from experienced designers and trade partners.  Students learned how to team with Workrooms, Contractors, and Installers. The theme of the event was ”Soft Window Treatments 101”. It provided the students with the 13 do’s and 7 don’ts they needed to know about specifying fabric choices, terminology and more!!!! During lunch, students asked questions from a panel of experienced designers.  They ended the day with exciting sessions on how to work with trade professionals.
