June 2022 Show of Hands

Edgington Studio was honored to be selected as one of four finalists to present during the June 2022 Show of Hands competition hosted by Wheeling Heritage. Held at the Wheeling Artisan Center, the event welcomed more than 200 community members, each contributing $5 for the opportunity to vote for their favorite business pitch. Our presentation focused on Edgington Studio's mission to strengthen apparel manufacturing in Wheeling by expanding our production capabilities with new industrial sewing equipment and improved workstations.

Although we didn't take home the grand prize, the experience was an incredible opportunity to share our vision, connect with fellow entrepreneurs, and meet so many supportive members of the Wheeling community. The encouragement we received reinforced our commitment to growing local manufacturing and creating new opportunities through sewing education and apparel production. We remain grateful for everyone who supported us and look forward to continuing to expand our services throughout the Ohio Valley.
