Day of Shadowing Planning Meeting

Every year, Women in Design – Kansas City organizes a “Day of Shadowing” in the Fall, where high school students who are interested in design are paired with a local design firm to learn more about the profession. The Membership Committee will be meeting this month to make those match-ups and plan for this exciting day! If you are interested in being a part of this task-force, please come to our next meeting. No prior involvement is necessary – this is a great way to get involved and give back to the design community!

If you would like to help, but cannot attend the planning meeting, contact Christina McCoy at membership@widkc.org.

RSVP Here!
