<h2> CITY SOURCE </h2>There are over 6500 Garment District Businesses that make up the District. We have invited a select group to open their doors to us and give a glimpse into what happens behind the scenes.Since 2011, the FIT Center for Continuing and Professional Studies, Enterprise Studies and Digital Design with the generous support from the Garment District Alliance and SUNY has produced an in-person tradeshow highlighting the factories in the garment center. Since Covid, we have moved this event to a virtual platform. Since moving the show to a virtual platform, the factory owners have really been able to engage with potential customers and attendees. Through pre-recorded tours, live Q &amp; A sessions, and live demos, we have been able to bring to life the behind-the-scenes of the featured businessesJoin us for this three-day LIVE virtual event which will feature 20-minute tours, demos, and Q &amp; A. This will be a once-in-a-lifetime peek into what goes on behind the scenes. Whether transforming your designs and giving them life, producing an event, staying at a hotel or just shopping within the district, this event is the one for you to attend and take advantage of these resources.We have a brand new roster for June!
