TL;DR Power (and Profit) to the People.
This Indigenous People’s Day, I’m returning to the gram to highlight a very special project that we’re hosting at 2052, but first I must acknowledge the atrocities we are currently witnessing at home in Chicago, afflicted by totally unhinged and violent ICE agents at the instruction of a deranged and hostile administration, meant to punish the black and brown communities of this liberal sanctuary city. We stand with Chicagoans of all demographics and immigration status when we say NO TRUMP, NO ICE, NO NATIONAL GUARD terrorizing our neighbors. We know that Immigrants are what makes America, and Chicago, so great. The occupation of our city is a complete waste of taxpayer dollars, and a total overreach by an administration of incompetent disloyal clowns following a misogynistic, pedophilic felon. Chicago is an amazing city, has an unbeatable skyline, culinary scene, arts scene and all-around culture. Problems? Sure, but show me any major city without them.
The trunk show is an amazing project highlighting designer fine jewelry that utilizes only responsibly-sourced, mercury-free Fairmined Peruvian gold, celebrating the power of collaboration and designing a path towards traceability! For designers (especially, but not only local to Chicago) looking to learn more, we strongly encourage you to register and attend (IRL or virtually) the where many of the designers, miners and everyone else shaping a better jewelry industry will be sharing their experiences and maybe even offering mentorship or advice. DM for a discount code to register! For consumers looking to buy beautiful jewelry that benefits everyone in the mine-to-market supply chain please visit the showroom Wednesday & Thursdays 2-7 and Saturdays & Sundays 11-4 to find the perfect piece for you or that very special person. Now through November 15.
