SUMMARY:CitySource Lunch and Learn: Moving From Sample to Production
DESCRIPTION:Join us online to learn during your lunch hour with the CitySource Lunch and Learn Series\, which are held virtually and hosted by FIT’s Center for Continuing and Professional Studies (CCPS) and the Garment District Alliance. \nDid you know that October is Manufacturing Month?
