We at CMI AV have had the opportunity to manage events around the globe, help with major company announcements, celebrate the work of dedicated teams, and help businesses unveil countless new innovations across hundreds of industries. And what have we learned over the course of our long history? We've learned that people drive us, people inspire us, people make our operation work, and people are our priority. As a business, and as people, we are committed to combating racism and prejudice and creating a welcoming, inclusive environment for employees, vendors, contractors, clients, and event attendees of all backgrounds, races, ethnicities, genders, abilities, and ages.

Thank you to Wegmans, Sage Rutty & Company, Inc., Tompkins Bank of Castile, Lawley, CMI Communications, Pullano & Company, Norma Barton, and Terry Steele for yo...ur generous support of next week's Fine Tastings for Al Sigl Community! Funds raised benefit Al Sigl's six Member Agencies serving over 55,000 people of all ages and abilities in our community. #AlSigl #AchievingMoreTogether See more
