Join us in the Test Site for a series of gallery talks around public perceptions of manufacturing, worth, and beauty led by Anna Telcs featuring guests from all facets of the fashion industry. This week we will be joined by Dick Meyer.

His community involvement has always been local as well as national with stints and leadership on the Boards of the Fair Trade Federation, the Fair Trade Resource Network, and Sweatfree Communities.
