The Art Director’s Club of Denver is throwing its 10th-annual Paper Fashion Show, beginning at 6 p.m. March 7 in the Seawell Grand Ballroom, at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts. Seating options range from standing room to Ultimate VIP.
“Denver is really emerging as a fashion and design engine,” said Shannon Gray, the Art Director’s Club Digital Chair. “We look forward to another wonderful evening of wearable art in motion.”
Attendees will enjoy a rare opportunity to network with and be inspired by other creatives. Artists have submitted more than 50 novel designs, made entirely out of paper.
“We’re proud to celebrate our 10th year,” said ADCD president Katie Matteo. “ADCD has raised over $30,000 to benefit Downtown Aurora Visual Arts since the inception of the Paper Fashion Show.”
The nonprofit event continues to raise funds and awareness for DAVA, which provides art education programming for youth ages 3-17 in a high-risk urban community.
The competition will be judged by members of the Denver fashion community, including Brandi Shigley of Fashion Denver, Craig Hanson of American Crew, and Justice Kwesi Kwarteng of The JTA Group. Monetary and in-kind sponsorships have been provided by xpedx, D&K Printing, Firehaus Salon, nxt|MODEL, Voltage Digital Advertising and Design, Beads for Life, CONTENT Public Relations, Beauty By Buford, Black Eye, CND, Cured, Denver Arts & Venues, Dynamite Laser Beam, Eye Candy Graphics, Fashion Denver, Fibermark, FIDM, HEFT, Indy Ink, International Paper, IZZE, Mohawk, Neenah, OneTouch, Philosophy Communications, Play, re.dzine, re: for your home, The Denver Egotist, The Object Shop, and Yupo Corporation.
