idlny leaders, with coalition partners iida ny and asid ny upstate/ canada east, will gather upstate in albany to lead a half day of programming for new york state designers.
the event was organized to equip new york state interior designers with knowledge about the legislation that currently regulates their rights to practice (for example, the “sign & seal” law prohibits interior designers from submitting plans or specifications to obtain a building permit for a project), as well as future bills that could impact them. idlny president dan villella will provide insight on these legislative issues and a ceu accredited seminar about advocacy will close out the evening. attendees will leave the session armed with the tools they need to work for change. this is a free event, but please register online with the link provided.
[ idlny ] is hosting its second annual gala for the design community at the intrepid sea, air and space museum on the evening of thursday, 1 june 2017. join colleagues, friends and supporters of the interior design industry for sunset cocktails & refreshments on the historic aircraft carrier overlooking the hudson!
the gala will celebrate the efforts of idlny’s representatives and volunteers who support the design profession through advocacy and legislation. it also serves as a major fundraiser to bolster the coalition for another year of advocacy to elevate the interior design profession in new york state.
