The Textile Association of Los Angeles (TALA) will honor local philanthropic organization California Fashion Industries Save A Life and TALA member Carol Sachs as Friend of TALA and Member of the Year, respectively, at TALA’s inaugural luncheon on Jan. 23 in the California Mart Fashion Theater.

The event will also recognize TALA’s incoming board members: Ann K.
