The Toy Industry Association (TIA) will kick off its 100th anniversary celebrations on September 17 with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the new Toy Halls of Fame Exhibit at The Strong National Museum of Play in Rochester, New York. The event will honor contributors to the toy industry’s evolution and success, including a number of TIA members.

The celebration will continue throughout next year with a variety of events and initiatives, such as a visual timeline showcasing significant moments in TIA’s history between 1916 and 2016. This timeline will remain on display throughout the 113^th North American International Toy Fair.
