Grace Bonney of Design*Sponge hit the Hub last night as she hosted one of her national Biz Ladies meet-up events at West Elm in Boston. Despite the drenching rain and fighting through throngs of Red Sox fans (West Elm is located in the shadow of Fenway Park), the event was fun and fact filled.
Grace (seated on floor, facing towards left on right side of photo) discusses how to pitch products to magazines and blogs.
My Downtown Women’s Club colleague Susan Hammond (far left) and colleages from the Center for Women and Enterprise (CWE) and Business Volunteer for the Arts speaks about legal and business issues.Thanks to West Elm for hosting us, Grace for pulling these events together and all those who brought the goodies. And a big thanks to the West Elm staffer who talked me in on my cell phone as I fought Boston traffic and a bad sense of direction!
