“We are encouraging artists to submit innovative, original fashion designed using the garments or blank fabric we provide,” explained Regina Hogan, TOP chair for New Face Productions, which is sponsoring this event designed to serve artists, residents and visitors in our community. “Our mission is to assist and create adult, cutting-edge, exciting and profitable benefit events for the DAC,” she added.

Fees for first entries are $25 and $15 for additional entries. Students’ fees are $15 for the first entry and $10 for each additional. For the first time, this year TOP is offering limited number of sponsorships for students. Two People’s Choice Awards of $500 each also have been added.

All entries will be judged and accepted for the live auction and fashion show by a jury of noted fashion and textile designers, including Ilze Aviks, Susan Rogers and Becky Surmeier. Artists receive 50 percent of the auctioned price of their pieces.
