We know that shopping can be a bit intimidating these days, but retailers are doing their part to keep you safe and healthy. With a little bit of compassion, patience and togetherness we can all shop safe! Featuring Superstar Drag Queen Nina West, and trauma response yoga therapist, Lori Guth, #SHOPSAFE2020 reminds you of the importance of kindness and empathy during these trying times.
“This is a challenging time for retailers across the globe. As we work together to eliminate the current health crisis, there have been stigmas about when and where it is safe to shop. As retail experts, visual merchandisers and compassionate human beings, we are here to help retailers put safety at the forefront and be empathetic, putting shoppers at ease, and eliminate any shame they may have about enjoying shopping.”

Time. Talent. Community.
“It’s mind-blowing to know how giving people are. It’s just amazing to me. Columbus is a really giving community and it speaks to how close-knit and tight our LGBTQ community is. One of my favorite things about what I do, now more than ever, is making a connection with families, kids, and LGBTQ families and their children,” Andrew said. “Giving families access to the art of drag is pretty powerful and awesome.”
Kindness is queen.
