Women In Lighting – Updates

Updates from American Lighting Association’s Women In Lighting & WILD:

American Lighting Association’s Women in Lighting Mentor Program is accepting applications for both Mentors and Mentees until November 30th. Mentors are lighting industry veterans who share their knowledge, expertise, and industry best practices with those who are new to the industry. Mentees learn from industry veterans and have the opportunity to ask questions, discuss issues and share ideas. Everyone is welcome to participate.

A brief questionnaire assists the mentoring program committee in making matches that work well for both parties. Even those who have participated in the past are asked to complete the new questionnaire in order to participate in the January – April 2023 session. Complete that questionnaire today here.

ALA’s Women in Lighting Committee has announced that nominations are open for their annual WILLA Award. The award recognizes one individual for her role in the lighting industry, support of ALA, mentoring of other women in the industry, and devotion to her community through philanthropy and or volunteerism. Both the nominator and the nominee must be ALA members. The deadline for nominations is January 31, 2023.
