ART has released the following statement against N.C.’s HB2 law.
“The mission of ART - The Creative Home Furnishings Network is to support all aspects of the home accessories industry; and inclusiveness is a core value of our organization.
We are unequivocally opposed to the recent HB2 legislation recently enacted in North Carolina. We along with many others in the industry believe we should stand together in our opposition to this legislation and continue to support each other, this unique industry and the High Point Market.
Punishing our buying venues is not the answer to this discriminatory bill and will inflict harm on our industry’s growing momentum. As a member-based organization, ART respects the varied viewpoints that contribute to the creative and collaborative environment we encourage, but as an organization, we must voice our concern over HB2."
