Every year, we have enjoyed seeing the Initiatives in Art and Culture (IAC) conference that focuses on a number of industries within the jewelry industry. IAC educates diverse audiences in visual culture, including the fine and decorative arts.
This year marks their 10th anniversary and although attending events in person is something that we can’t do right now, we’re excited to see that on Oct 28th, they are running a conference (entire program below) that will allow industry experts to gather virtually and to talk about Ethics and Sustainability in Gold and Diamond Enterprise. This day will include panels from industry experts that focus on this topic and will explore the evolution of responsible practice over the past 20 years. It will also honor Anisa Kamadoli Costa, Chief Sustainability Office, Tiffany & Co. with its Award for Leadership in Responsibility Practice in Jewelry.
