President’s Message

Hello ASID New England!

I am thrilled to be your President in 2021! It is my hope that together we can cultivate a supportive community and culture for all of us, both personally and professionally — albeit a “virtual” community for the time being. This new year will bring with it new approaches to how we identify the latest trending products, with a push towards embracing technology and using it to adapt how we relate to each other and ASID as a whole.

In the past, ASID has offered impressive social galas, fascinating CEU opportunities to visit and experience new products, showrooms, and

opportunities to network and share with associates in our field. Despite the challenges we face, I’m hoping that we can find new and creative ways to enjoy a similar experience without physically being together. How do we do this? Well, it won’t easy, but with everyone on board, I’m sure we can make it awesome.

In the next year look out for new Professional Development Series and make sure to put our “First Friday” Series on your calendar. We also have some exciting design competitions brewing. Our awards committee

can’t wait to show off our talented members. Follow us on Instagram, Facebook and Linkedin to make sure you are in the know!

If we are going to make this year a success, it will take your participation! So please, next time you see a “call for content” or an event, I encourage you to sign up! We have a brilliant community looking forward to seeing you again! Diana L. Frucci ASID President, ASID New England Owner/Interior Designer, furnitureconsignment.com
