Our Golden Ticket raffle winner will be drawn by Poison Waters at 8pm, and the online auction will close at 10pm.

Story
SH/FT: A Celebration of Fashion Design is a celebration of ingenuity and expression! The event supports Arts for Learning NW and features the creativity of young, talented designers. In partnership with a mentor designer, young designers have teamed up to create original garments made from upcycled materials. Celebrated drag performers will showcase the creations down the runway for this fabulous show for 200+ guests, live and in-person at Oregon Contemporary (formerly Disjecta Contemporary Art Center) in the Kenton neighborhood of North Portland.
ALNW board and staff have been hard at work rallying the community to support the SH/FT program and all the other ways our organization is connecting young people with diverse arts and creative experiences, and making the arts abundantly accessible in schools and communities - be sure to check out and bid on packages of unique items and experiences in our auction, which will open two days before the SH/FT Runway Show!
