“Rock the Jewels” was presented by Black in Jewelry Coalition and NYCJW with special guest Simone I. Smith.

Rock the Jewels is a celebration of diversity and creativity in the world of jewelry. This year marks the 50th anniversary of hip hop, and we are excited to commemorate this milestone by celebrating the influence of this unique musical genre on the gem and jewelry industry.

Join us for an evening of glamour, style, and celebration, as we gather at the breathtaking Elsie Rooftop on November 16th at 6pm.
