TAA is pleased to announce Cleveland actress Paula Duesing as 2010 fashion show emcee. Music is provided by Neil Kammiller.

Northeast Ohio's wearable fashion spectacular features table boutiques and a stunning fashion show with one-of-a-kind garments, jackets, accessories, and other imaginative fiber wearables for day and evening.

The 6th Annual Wearable Art Fashion Show & Boutique held on October 18, 2009, was a smashing success!! 560 patrons attended the sold-out runway show; 75 artists from seven states participated in 50 boutique booths and the runway. The increased sales raised the amount donated to the Cleveland Museum of Art Textile Acquisition Fund.

  • The afternoon boutique and runway sales area are open to the public ($5). Tickets available at the door.
  • Fashion Show Patron tickets include Boutique Preview Shopping, Fashion Show, Lunch, Boutique, and Runway Sales ($45).
  • Full table reservations (10 people, $450) assigned priority runway perimeter seating.
