New York—Jewelers of America (JA) is holding its next Multifaceted Learning Workshops in Washington, D.C. and New York, completing its four-part series for 2024.

The next workshop will take place on Tuesday, Sept. 17, at the Army Navy Club in Washington, D.C.
It is being held in conjunction with JA’s annual Jewelers of America Political Action Committee Fly-In, which will occur on Wednesday, Sept. 18.

The next and final workshop will take place Oct. 29 in New York City.
It will coincide with the JA New York show that is scheduled for Oct. 27 to 29.
While the show is not owned or operated by JA, there will be a member pavilion at the show.
