New York--The Women’s Jewelry Association’s annual “Jewelry Night Out” will take place in 19 cities across the country on Sept. 10.
The cities where WJA chapters are participating are Bethesda, Md.; Birmingham, Al.; Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.; Madison, Wis.; Providence, R.I.; Seattle; San Francisco; San Diego; New York City; Nashville; Minneapolis; Los Angeles; Las Vegas; Cincinnati; Denver; Dallas; Chicago; Boston; and Atlanta.
There also will be gatherings held in Hong Kong and Antwerp.
This is the third year of the event, which invites designers, retailers, editors, marketers, appraisers, salespeople, manufacturers and other members of the jewelry and watch industry to not only network, but also apply for or renew their WJA memberships for a one-time price of $99 (only valid the night of JNO for attendees of the event).
The WJA JNO website lists event details for each city, as well as the WJA membership application form, for those interested in filling it out before the event. Registration also is available on this site by clicking the “Locations” tab and reserving a spot under the desired city.
WJA is encouraging attendees to use the hashtag #WJANightOut to connect the events on social media networks.
“JNO is our premiere networking event,” said WJA President Andrea Hansen. “It provides a stellar chance for WJA members all over the country to meet up and also link to each other online via social networks.”
