FASHION AS ART '25
Launched in 2019, Fashion As Art is an annual program engaging the community with art, fashion, and The Fralin. In partnership with the museum’s Volunteer Board, local businesses, and student groups, the events grow awareness of the museum’s mission and activities and showcase the depth and breadth of local and national artists and designers. In conjunction with The Fralin's 90th Anniversary, Fashion as Art ’25 focuses on the evolution of fashion. Events will be held at UVA and in Charlottesville and Gordonsville.
