The Bay Area's Hub for Asian Pacific American Community Arts Since 1972
How Do You Celebrate Your Body?
Kearny Street Workshop, the Bay Area’s hub for Asian Pacific American arts since 1972, cordially invites you to a night of fun, fashion, and empowerment. This is a runway unlike any other, featuring eight up-and-coming POC designers and stylists who will set out to prove the celebration of all the bodies we arrive in (via age, size, color, gender, ability) is what’s truly timeless in fashion.
Hosted by Virgie Tovar (Buzzfeed, Lose Hate Not Weight) with beats generously provided by DJ Slum B.
