“Many retailers in our industry are independent jewelers who created or operate a family-owned business specifically with the idea of handing a legacy down to their heirs,” AJS Executive Director Libby Brown said. “Over the last 25 to 30 years, changes in the economy as well as changes in the retail industry as a whole has made owning and operating a family-owned business challenging at best.
“Our goal with the AJS Kids Jewelry Camp is to connect with children whose families are in the industry and help them nurture their interest in the industry by identifying and cultivating excitement and passion for jewelry and the jewelry industry.”
