Jewelers of America delayed its annual Gem Awards gala until summer in the hopes of being able to gather in-person, then pivoted to a virtual awards broadcast last month.
The 24-Karat Club canceled its January banquet, and the Jewelers’ Security Alliance and JVC hosted virtual events.
But January 2022 is, so far, shaping up to resemble a pre-pandemic year.
Besides JVC’s in-person luncheon, Gem Awards will also reemerge from the virtual world.
It is also slated for Jan. 14. Held in the evening, as in years past, there will be plenty of time for industry members to attend both the JVC luncheon and the awards gala.
The 24 Karat Club of the City of New York’s annual banquet will happen in-person, too, on Saturday, Jan. 15. It will take place at a new location: Cipriani South Street.
The JSA also has scheduled its annual luncheon for that same day, Jan. 15, in-person at the New York Yacht Club.
