Etsy’s Small Business & Sustainability Summit
Had a great time yesterday at the Etsy Summit and heard a lot of interesting projects from designers, architects, and small business champions on how to sustain ecologically and ethically conscious practices. It was pretty inspiring and I thought I’d make my own Etsy-inspired post. These are some photos that I took while I was there and then ‘Etsy-fied’ with Photoshop and pencil sketching. Thanks so much to Textile Arts Center for sending me and ‘Vive la craft’!

Hello Etsty Small Business & Sustainability Summit
Hello Etsy Summit on Small Business and Sustainability is Sunday. Kids In Love is excited to go to the Brooklyn events as part of Textile Arts Center. Panels I’m looking forward to include: “Matthew Crawford’s The Case for Working with Your Hands,” “New Mutualism Will Save Us” by Sara Horowitz founder and executive director of Freelancers Union, and “The Challenges of Sustainable Design in a Local Ecosystem,” a panel on:
“The challenges of sustaining a local economy while pursuing innovation by design. Laetitia Wolff, executive director at desigNYC and founder of futureflair, will moderate a lively discussion on how to sustain small businesses, engage local communities, and bring innovative, design-centric products and projects to market while remaining socially responsible. The panelists will address the unique considerations and opportunities available to businesses and community organizations at a local level, and conclude with practical advice for focusing on sustainability in a local ecosystem.”
Woo Hoo go local and see you at the summit!
