ArtWear Fashion Week

Please check back later for more information about a future date for ArtWear Fashion Week.

Our goal is to present innovative and wearable works of the highest quality and provide a forum to share our enthusiasm for an exploration into wearable art techniques and materials.

Our 2008 ArtWear Fashion Week was a great success! We had an exciting week with opportunities for many of you to see the fabulous wearable art through the Preview Event Fashion Show, week long Sales Gallery; and take advantage of wonderful demonstrations, trunk shows, and the third annual KnitWear Event. Thank you to all who participated and donated their time towards these events. We hope to see you at the next ArtWear Fashion Week!

ArtWear Fashion Week highlighted the work of over 50 artists from across the nation through the weeklong Sales Gallery and the Preview Event Fashion Show. Money from garment sales benefit the Lincoln Center Visual Arts program, allowing us to provide outreach to the community, Colorado State University, Poudre School District & other area schools. It also allows the Visual Art Department to purchase needed equipment and provide support for special events and continue to provide the community with quality visual arts exhibitions.
