Clover Park Interior Design Alumi, Student and Instructor Join ASID, Help YWCA

The new women’s shelter in downtown Tacoma will have its opening on Friday, October 22, from 2:00 – 7:00 p.m. and Saturday, October 23, from 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

Eleven CPTC designer graduates, one Interior Design student, and an instructor have volunteered with ASID Northwest (American Society of Interior Design) and completely designed and fitted-out some of the 22 units with all the necessities as community pro bono work. Taking on a charity such as this under the supervision of ASID is a first for an organization that usually focuses on Street of Dreams. CPTC designers are rocking the design world around Puget Sound!

Hope to see lots of CPTC folks and community members at the event. The address is 401 St. Helens Ave. (The Wilsonian). There’s a $10 donation at the door, tax deductable. Any questions, call Kelly McDonald, at the Y, at 253.272.4181 x 243.
