SoHarlem provided work/studio space, access to office space, technology, shopping area for their wares, mentorship and other resources. A significant amount of time was devoted to planning and professional development for all the CEs. They had access to industry professional that assisted them with updating their business canvases, reviewed their brand philosophy; product lines; marketing; and sales. This began the process of providing CEs with the information needed to create a pitch deck to help them with potential investors and small business competitions. As part of their professional development SoHarlems Communications Specialist, Vivian Cotte reviewed their social media presence, websites, e-commerce and shopping sites as a group and followed-up with individual consultations. She continued to work with them throughout the year to either develop or strengthen the social media and websites.September is Fashion Month in New York City and most designers cannot afford to participate because it cost thousands of dollars. SoHarlem had never had a fashion show featuring its designers and apprentices and we raised funds to help make this happen as part of our incubation process. Instead of charging designers as others do in Harlem who put on fashion shows they each were provided a modest budget to hire the models, stylists, make-up, etc. who can best tell their stories and walk the runway. The inaugural fashion show was the center piece of SoHarlems annual event, I AM SO HARLEM. It featured inspirational designs of our creative entrepreneurs, and was followed-up with a three-day pop at the site of the event. The impact of the Fashion Show increased SoHarlems visibility and markets for our designers; increased the demand for our programs and services; and helped our creative entrepreneurs increase their understanding on how best to tell their story, manage the details of working with models and increase their overall business acumen including increasing their income.SoHarlem created additional pop-up opportunities with greater accessibility for our CEs. A few examples include: Holiday Shop N Sip; and at Columbia Universitys Forum for three weeks. 85190 6885 Training Institute: Workforce DevelopmentIn 2024, the Creative Economy Training Institute offered a 12-week training on the fundamentals of sewing. The priority was to serve unemployed and underemployed Central Harlem, East Harlem, West Harlem and Upper Manhattan residents at no cost. Trainees were also recruited from the South Bronx given the need, proximity to Harlem, and reality that Harlem has become unaffordable. Trainees were taught basic sewing techniques related to garment construction. The program also served designers and others seeking to develop their garment construction skills to enhance their ability as designers. The program has served as a pathway for recruiting apprentices for SoHarlem. Of the 18 trainees in 2024, three were hired as a Studio Apprentice at SoHarlem, four found work in the garment industry, one is using her skills doing alterations as part of the laundry she owns with her family, the other established a small cottage business making dresses for Quinceaera celebrations (a Latin American tradition celebrating a girl's 15th birthday).In addition, SoHarlem provided two young designers with 63 hours of intensive training in design, pattern making and garment construction. SoHarlem accommodated their schedules and commutes during January. During the Summer SoHarlem recruited summer interna, from the High School of Art & Design to assist the designers in preparing for their Fall Fashion Show. The Designers Studio also provided more than 200 hours to studio access to former creative entrepreneurs, apprentices and trainees to work on projects. Designers and seamstresses were available to assist them with patternmaking and garment construction utilizing the cutting tables, sewing machines, ironing stations and other equipment. 567932 true false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 41 0 true 3 false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 7 0 false false false false false false false true true false false false true true true true true false false false NY X Janet Rodriguez 2122222792 1361 Amsterdam Avenue Suite 340 New York NY 10027 X Marie Puck Meunier Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Deirdre Washington Board Member 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Jessica Tomb Chairwoman 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Emmily De Los Santos Secretary 1.50 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Barbara Lee Morgan Member 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Adrienne Jones Board Member 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Janet Rodriguez CEO 40.00 10.00 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 363104 516721 43015 879825 PROGRAM FEES & GIFT SHOP 900099 45898 45898 45898 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 925723 45898 X 0 0 0 0 127500 65900 22428 39172 0 80000 41350 14072 24578 0 0 16661 7664 3665 5332 0 0 0 0 0 0 19500 9500 10000 1455 1455 0 0 0 195004 130617 64387 530 279 251 0 0 0 0 1330 798 372 160 9714 8677 1037 Designer Studio 107992 107992 Training Institute Expense 91207 91207 Marketing 65719 65719 Facilities 40000 40000 105901 36774 8024 61103 862513 567932 123985 170596 81694 146666 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 14570 10683 5217 3887 0 0 0 0 0 86911 150553 466 896 466 896 X 86445 149657 86445 149657 86911 150553 X 63210 2 X false false false X 253833 733754 589645 632744 765604 2975580 0 0 253833 733754 589645 632744 765604 2975580 0 2975580 0 0 25002 15210 40212 3015792 0.98670 0.97170 X 6475 4096 2379 8095 6587 1508 3887 Occupancy 40000 FMV Refreshments 1104 FMV Training 1411 FMV Materials 500 FMV false false false Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b After the Board Treasurer reviews it, the form will be reviewed by Board of Directors before it is filed.
