NEWH - Winter 2021 - 90

CHAPTER HIGHLIGHTS
Los Angeles Founding
In July the chapter hosted a Diversity and Hospitality panel at Helm's Bakery Atrium in Culver City. Panelists included dynamic women of color who are leaders in the
hospitality industry: Felecia Fisher-Shamu, CEO of Vitality Casegoods, Restoration and Fine Furniture Manufacturing; Genelle Brooks-Petty, principal designer at BPC
Interior Design; and Adaeze Cadet, design principal at HOK. The first in-person event since February 2020 drew more than 50 guests who enjoyed light hors d'oeuvres and
drinks sponsored by Mahram and Bolon. All of the panelists spoke on mentorship and reaching students before high school.
Adaeze Cadet shared her perspective: " Our industry has come a long way and I am excited to be pushing that forward, where we have more diverse voices as part of the
narrative to really shape our environment in a meaningful way. "
The chapter feels it is critical that it
continues to lead the way in showcasing
diversity in the community. This event was
spearheaded by its EID board member and
NEWH, Inc. vice president of EID, Lanee
S. Burns, and Jezzica N. Lindkrantz, the
chapter's vice president of development.

In May the chapter had its first in-person event of the year with a great turnout
as members and guests of the design industry gathered safely at Plantscape
in Minneapolis for a DIY succulent planter project and inspirational tours.
The tours, given by Alex Wilson, WELL AP, provided insight on the company's
products and services, showcasing multiple living plants and trees, plus artistic
artificial forests. Everyone was excited to see familiar friendly faces and kick off
the summer with a fun event. A special thank you to the generous sponsors for
making this successful event, and all others, possible for members and guests.
