We’re having a fashion show! Join us on Friday, August 25, 2023 from 6 - 8 PM for our Stitched Access Fashion Show hosted by Town Hall Collaborative!
Access Gallery is excited to announce its inaugural fashion showcase titled Stitched Access and presented by participating artists of Access Gallery’s first-ever fashion residency. Thanks to the generous funding received from the Creative Ideas Fund and in partnership with the Denver Tool Library, participants were able to develop their skills and knowledge in the world of fashion. Our event is a celebration of inclusivity, creativity, and empowerment through art, community, and fashion that empowers individuals with disabilities. It is the culmination of Access Gallery’s fashion residency that began in October of 2022. Join us for a night of fashion where you will learn the personal stories of Access Gallery artists, gain insight into their creative journeys, connect with community members, and be awed as each artist models their own creations down the runway. The showcase will also feature local design shop Lawrence and Larimer Clothing + Supply Co. who will be sharing their garments and ethos.
