Welcome to the New York City Section of the Illuminating Engineering Society
We are a volunteer professional membership organization comprised of individuals who share a mutual appreciation for and fascination with all things lighting. We are dedicated to promoting both the art and science of illumination to our members, to other professional organizations, to the industry, and to the public through inspiring events, informative programs, educational series, and great networking opportunities.
President's Message
Even though I will miss seeing all of you at the Lumen Gala, I hope you will congratulate all of the 2020 Lumen Award winners. Stay tuned for the announcement coming very soon. I commend the Lumen Committee for coming up with an innovative way to share with you Lumen-worthy projects. You will be able to see all of the projects on our website. I'm not mentioning the projects here because I want you to experience the excitement of winning a Lumen Award. So let's raise a glass to the Lumen Winners and I hope to see you next year.
A few weeks ago, we held our first virtual lighting tour of the Museum of Modern Art with Tillotson Lighting Design and Renfro Design Group. Michuru Tanaka was a wonderful host and my thanks to Monica Feuderer who produced the program. We had an excellent turnout and hope to do more virtual programs in the future. If you missed this program, members can view it here.
As I begin my second year as president of the IESNYC, I am looking forward to increasing our impact, even more successful programs, and more opportunities for us to gather in network.
Please continue to take good care of yourself, we'll get through this together.
Best Regards,
Mike Barr, MIES
President, New York City Section of the IES
