Women In Media is proud to announce the Tools To Work Initiative! Many of our members in the Art Department have been impacted by the downturn in the entertainment industry, as well as the LA Fires. In an effort to help build their kits – which they can charge a kit fee for, we are awarding DEWALT power tools sets (valued over $1,000 each) courtesy of DeWalt Grow the Trades.
We will be gifting the tools on March 22nd at our Member Meeting. Please get your ticket for the meeting ASAP.

We want to know that you will get good use from a comprehensive kit as you work on set, building sets and/or working with props, and/or set decoration, and/or in scene shops. The tools will be yours to keep, and may not be resold or gifted.
