Our mission is to provide the lighting community an inclusive and open environment for professional and personal growth by offering networking, mentorship, and knowledge sharing. Women in Lighting and Design is open to all women, those that identify as female, and their allies, creating a supportive and safe network for all.

Join us at our networking events for animated discussions on women in the workplace and current lighting trends while making new friends and meeting mentors.  Learn from our history and discuss how we can strive to push forward as a group and individually.

We are WILD.

We hope you and yours are staying safe and healthy during this time. We know that every member of our community is experiencing hardships and uncertainty right now. Some of you are homeschooling your children, some of you have experienced the health impacts of COVID-19, and some of you are already feeling financial strains. Our volunteers at WILD have been struggling with our own personal issues, and reeling from the cancellation or postponement of multiple conferences and events that we were hoping would bring the WILD community together.

During this time of struggle, we must remember that we are a community, and our ultimate goal is to support one another. The most important thing for our members to do at this time is to make sure that they make it through this experience. If you are having trouble, reach out to your friends and supporters in this group. If you are on Facebook, join the WILD group so that you can access those in similar situations. But most of all, take care of yourself and those you love.

We will make it through this. We are Strong. We are Resilient. We are WILD.

Statistics indicate that there has been a rise in domestic violence during this time of stay-at-home. If you are able, please consider donating to Safe Horizon, a NYC based group helping to support children, adults, and families affected by crime and abuse.

There’s still a few days left to March so let’s finish celebrating Women’s History Month with a bang! Check out this video from 2019 with some WILD women from lighting and architecture! Link in bio.
Today is Equal Pay Day - on average women earn 82 cents for every dollar a man earns, and this day represents the extra time needed for women to earn the same amount as men did in 2020. The numbers for women of color are far worse (black women will not equalize until August) and the pandemic has lengthened the time expected for women to shrink this gap as more women have taken time off to care for family. See below for a few things you can do to close the gender pay gap:
Thanks for celebrating with us last week! You inspired us with stories of so many amazing women and energized us to fight alongside you in challenging society and ourselves! Check out some of our heroines and the ways we will #choosetochallenge today, and every day!
Thank you to everyone who attend our celebration of International Women’s Day today! This is just a small snippet of the amazing women that make up our community. You all inspire us every day with your strength and your fearless commitment to making waves and challenging for change. We are all hands in to create a more gender equal and inclusive world. Special thanks to our co-hosts for giving their time today and leading the fun! We are WILD!
Happy International Women’s Day!! Don’t forget to tell the women in your life how amazing they are (today and every day) 💕 and we’ll see you at the WILD celebration later today! RSVP is open until 11:30AM EST (click the link in our bio). If you RSVP’d and did not receive the zoom link - email us!
