Taking Sides – The Annual DLFNY Debate

February 27th, 2024

About the Event

Join us for this year’s DLFNY Taking Sides ‘Debate’! Taking Sides is a fun and educational evening of lively, sometimes absurd, debate between members of the New York City lighting design community. Enjoy a verbal joust as the debaters take sides on some of the most pressing topics in the lighting industry, during a light-hearted evening of discussion mixed with humorous provocation and competition. The topics have been chosen to provoke a dialog, so the opinions expressed by our panel may not be their personal stance, but will surely be interesting to hear. Our confirmed panel members include prominent figures from all aspects of the lighting industry.

The event is hosted by Parsons and it is free and open to all.
