Join us in an exciting after-work event at Milux Home in Soho where Divine NY & Co. will be showcasing our new line of pillows and sari throws!

Date: January 26, 2012
Location: Milux Home
Address: 482 Broome Street (corner of 60 Wooster)
Time: 6:00 – 9:00pm

We’ll be launching our new collection of pillows made with hand-woven and hand-dyed batik fabrics from Chantal, an artisan from rural Togo. At Divine NY & Co., part of our mission is to help women artisans around the world and by purchasing our batik cloth from Chantal and others like her, we give them a opportunity to earn a fair wage that will help change their lives, support their families and expand their businesses. .

We’ll also have our new collection of sari throws made from both recycled and new saris designed and hand-crafted locally in New York City. Let us help you custom design a sari throw in colors to suit your home style. We work with the women of Wishwas, a non-profit organization with operations in Queens and Brooklyn that provides underprivileged immigrant women in the NYC area an opportunity to earn a fair wage while acquiring new skills.

We look forward to seeing you at Milux Home!
