We had a great time at the IED 2024 Holiday Party
Everyone was in good spirits, we ate delicious food at Venuti's Italian Restaurant, and Jim Bulanda was amazing, as usual. He ended the night with New York, New York and sang it in a Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra style—it was one of his best performances yet! We wish all of our members and everyone in the industry Happy Holidays, and we hope you have a great start to 2025.
