> tabletops and wall art. As part of the project, the Boston Studio  
> challenged the participating teens to incorporate re-claimed DWR  
> catalogs into their design. Artists for Humanity (AFH) partners  
> these talented inner city kids with design professional mentors and  
> encourages them to conceptualize, create and market individually  
> assigned projects. The Studio is taking part in its first ever AFH  
> design challenge and auction. The results will be unveiled during  
> this inspiring event. Select pieces will be auctioned the same  
> night, and 100% of the proceeds will benefit Artists For Humanity.

> The Importance of Authenticity
> Thursday, December 6, 7pm
> DWR Cambridge Studio
>
> Not only is authenticity a prerequisite for our design assortment,  
> it plays a crucial role in the consumer experience with art,  
> design, architecture, and the products we use every day. DWR  
> Cambridge invites you to gain a better understanding of the many  
> counterfeit pitfalls as well as an appreciation for what it means  
> for something to be wholly authentic. Get one step closer to  
> becoming an expert and protecting yourself from costly errors down  
> the road. We'll share with you some of our favorite "best-of-the- 
> worst" knock-offs and a slideshow of some of the greatest  
> counterfeit experiences, from Colonial Williamsburg to The Pyramid  
> in Las Vegas. We hope you'll join us for this entertaining and mind  
> opening discussion. Authentic refreshments will be served. Or will  
> they?
