Colony’s Vendor Select program is an elevation of the classic lunch and learn. Hosted in partnership with founder and curator Jean Lin, the Vendor Select program brings architectural and trade-facing products from the workroom onto the gallery floor. Vendor Select provides high impact, high return engagement with both existing and new A&D clientele. Applications are currently open for the 2027 calendar year.
THE OPPORTUNITY
This series is designed for businesses with a sophisticated, luxury product and a compelling story to tell. The collaboration gives brands access to Colony’s close trade network, tailored directly to your sales and marketing strategy.
As a series, these concentrated business development events allow trade to directly see, touch, feel and connect with your product and your team—without the noise and competition of a supply room, fabrication site, or trade show.
The events complement and offer continuity to your holistic sales and marketing strategy. Each one enables multiple exposure points at different, strategically timed moments throughout the year in a luxury, inspirational, and centrally located Manhattan gallery setting.
Applications are currently open for the 2027 calendar year. We will be accepting up to four partners.
THE OFFER
The series is designed as a minimum of three (3) Lunch & Learns across a calendar year.
TIER 1—HOST
Use the space as an inspirational home base for your Lunch & Learns, led by your team.
TIER 2—COLLABORATE
Use the space as an inspirational home base for your Lunch & Learns, led by your team in collaboration with Colony as formal co-hosts.
Colony personally invites a specific, tailored list of trade, based on your team’s highest-value client wish list (10-20 key relationships may be requested).
