STREET LEVEL FASHION SHOW ON 11th AVE

8PM! w/Adé and DJs

DANCE PARTY ENCOURAGED BEFORE & AFTER!

This fourth installment, “Imminent Mode: Lore” will feature work that tells stories. Whether they are culturally-based or personal, our featured artists will be telling the stories that mean something to them; giving the public a view of who they are, where they come from, and their unique perspectives exhibited through installations and wearable art.

The goal of Imminent Mode is to provide a place for designers and visual artists to play with juxtaposition in creative expression.

Featured Artist Pairings:

Jordan Christianson + Anouk Rawkson / John Criscitello + Pete Rush / Dan Garlington + Mariel Andrade / Brenda Bryan + Grant Rehnberg / Aaron Lafferty + Travis Ritter / Kerstin Graudins + Ramona Barnes / Orlando Mandujano + Donald McCullough / Devon Yan + Juan Monroy / Diane Knoll + Julia Evanovich

11th Avenue between E. Pike and E. Pine street is concentrated with businesses and art/music spaces that are predominantly LGBTQ & MWBE (LGBTQ & minority and women owned/operated business enterprises) that strive to represent and host underserved and QTPOC artists.

(We regret that there will be no outside alcohol service for this event but the full bar is open inside Vermillion)
