Armani Arts Institute
Wednesday, February 18th, 2009
Giorgio Armani is giving $1 million to nurture art programs in NYC, he announced this at his Armani 5th Avenue store opening. “Armani Arts Institute” was created to aid art in schools with students coming from low-income families. Mayor Bloomberg supported this gift and said that students need a well-rounded education- and that includes art. A kind charitable act or a marketing maneuver in our ongoing market crisis? Does it matter?
