Exciting Announcement from ASID

GATHER 2022 - The National Conference by ASID 

September 21-24, 2022

We’re excited to announce an incredibly special opportunity for all interior designers, industry partners, students, and allied professionals to come together in 2022! The American Society of Interior Designers (ASID) will host a return to in-person programming with the first national conference for interior design in over a decade!

Mark your calendars — GATHER 2022, the National Conference by ASID will take place September 21-24, 2022 at the InterContinental Miami Hotel.

ASID is honored to offer the space and time for us to learn from one another again and build our community. In addition to creating a space for all interior designers and anyone allied to the community to network and socialize in person, #GATHER2022 will be the only national conference bringing together residential and commercial designers. Attendees will experience the latest innovations and product offerings from manufacturers and suppliers from all industries in interior design.  

Together, we will explore substantive topics impacting the interior design profession in all sectors at all career stages, including the changing work environment, adaptive and multi-generational living, and leading through challenging times. These topics will guide conversations among designers, students, business leaders, educators, and other visionaries from around the country. We will be sharing more soon about all the exciting programs and experiences to come. 

Sign up here to stay informed with all the latest information about GATHER 2022, the National Conference by ASID!  More information about registration will follow in the coming months.

Fresno

The Fresno State Interior Design Crowdfunding event runs from April 1st through April 30th. Our goal is $5,000.00 to send our students to the International Las Vegas Market in July 2022. The Market is a significant networking opportunity for the students and exposes them to many professionals they cannot meet in Fresno.

The soft launch is from March 28th through March 31st, and we greatly appreciate the most generous gift that you can provide to move us toward our goal.

We appreciate your support!
