DECORATORS CLUB EDUCATION FUND

The chair of the Decorators Club Education Fund, Ellen Hamilton, is deeply committed to diversity in the design world. The fund, founded in 1960, has found new life under Hamilton’s leadership. The goal: to change the face of interior design by exposing students to the world of interiors early, before they choose a college or career path.

Since 2023, the fund has provided scholarships in design education to 125 New York City high school students of economic need to attend classes at Parsons, Pratt, FIT, SVA, and the New York School of Interior Design.
