The New York City Section of the IES is a non-profit membership organization. Our goal is to improve the lighted environment by bringing together those with lighting knowledge and by translating that knowledge into actions that benefit the general populace.

The IESNYC’s vision is to build upon a century of outstanding excellence to create a premier lighting community that’s dedicated to promoting the art and science of lighting to its members, allied profession organizations and to the public through inspiring events and through informative programs, presentations and networking events.
