Mark your calendars for Friday, June 13, 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. The Association of Closet and Storage Professionals (ACSP) is thrilled to return with a signature experience our community has come to love: the Designer Exchange. This dynamic two-hour session, held during the 2025 Closets Conference & Expo, is designed specifically for closet designers looking to stay sharp, inspired, and ahead of the curve.

Join industry experts for concise, impactful presentations exploring two central themes:

Mastering the Art of Layering: Colors, Textures & Materials That Wow
Presented by Jenny O’Connor of Burke Architectural Millwork/Bespoke Closets, this session will explore how thoughtful layering can transform the everyday into extraordinary, elevating your designs with depth and sophistication.

Sell Like a Pro: Hands-On Marketing for Design Success
Co-presented by Allanna Bell of Optimization Dolls and myself, this session will offer practical tools and strategies to help designers authentically market themselves, connect with clients, and drive sales with confidence.

Each presentation will be followed by lively group discussions, where you can exchange ideas, share insights, and tap into the collective experience of your peers. The sessions will be moderated by Wendy Scott of Timeless Clos-ets and Cabinetry, who will also lead a guided tour of the exhibit hall during the second half of the program, highlighting the latest products and innovations.

We can’t wait to gather in beautiful West Palm Beach, Florida, for the Closets Conference & Expo. As part of the excitement, we’ll be celebrating a major milestone: ACSP’s 20th Anniversary! 

Join us for a special evening of celebration, connection, and community on Tuesday, June 10, from 6:00 – 9:00 p.m. at E. R. Bradley’s Saloon. With thanks to our generous sponsors, Federated Insurance and Richelieu Hardware, this event promises to be a highlight of the week. If you’d like to attend, please RSVP to Amanda Conger at [email protected].

We’re also thrilled to announce a new exclusive benefit for ACSP members — the launch of Mastermind Circles. This initiative is designed to deepen member engagement through small, thoughtfully curated groups that meet monthly for focused discussion and collaborative problem-solving.

Each circle will tackle a highlighted topic or specific objectives through open, member-driven dialogue. Beyond the monthly calls, we hope these circles foster lasting peer connections, continuous idea sharing, and a strong sense of community among our members.

Here’s to learning, connecting, and celebrating together. We can’t wait to see you there!
