Press Release: This Thursday evening, September 18, 2014, the metro chapter of the Women’s Jewelry Association (WJA) prepares for the second annual national membership drive, following last year’s great success with another highly anticipated Jewelry Night Out. With cocktail parties taking place in 15 cities across the U.S., WJA metro is delighted to create a unique event to drive current and prospective members to join for 2015. Headlining the metro event at Clyde Frazier’s is fashion muse, interior designer and accessories goddess, Iris Apfel, whose anecdotes and style always draw a crowd. Entitled “Life of a Legend: a Talk with Iris Apfel” the fashion icon is sure to delight. As a premier networking organization for the jewelry and watch trade, the WJA seeks to provide opportunities for women in the industry to develop professionally through education, networking, and leadership development. Jewelry Night Out is one of many events taking place throughout the association that offers such an exceptional networking opportunity. Last year’s Jewelry Night Out event was held at Gilbert Albert, where in one evening 33 new members joined the metro chapter and 36 renewed, with a 50 percent membership growth for the overall association alone in 2013. For those signing up for membership, the discount is $99, from the usual $160 annual membership fee; one must be present Thursday evening to register in order to receive the discount. Luxury gift bags will given to the first 120 people at the door on Thursday, with goodies from Blingguard, Efva Attling, Heritage Auction Gallery, Lavish Jewelry Cleaner, Pantone, Premier Spa Castle, Rio Tinto and Swarovski inside. Due to overwhelming response closer to the date, the metro chapter venue was changed to Clyde Frazier’s since the original venue was sold out at maximum capacity when there were still two weeks to go.
