About the auction
Online bidding is open now, so you can get a jump on the competition -- but the final bids will be taken during the event. Silent auction items include:

Accessories and art prints from Columbus designers
About the event
Overlooking High Street, you'll enjoy sips & bites in the open, cosmopolitan atmosphere of Denmark's 2nd floor bar and lounge. You'll also see a fashion show of Art-Fashion Collaboration dresses and other runway garments before you place your bid in a silent auction. Designers and artists will be in attendance to discuss their creative inspirations. It will be a great cocktail party, an inspiring event, and a way to be an active supporter of creativity in Columbus.

What's FABRIC? It’s a planned brick-and-mortar facility that will give independent fashion designers and other industry professionals a share in resources they need to succeed as small business owners—right here in Columbus.
Why is it needed? Columbus has a high concentration of fashion designers (3rd in the nation behind NYC and LA!)—but there is a lack of resources that can help these independent brands flourish. We are one of the nation’s leaders in big retail brands, and there's no reason we shouldn't also be a leader in innovative, independent labels. By providing shared resources and opportunities for independent brands, we can create a welcoming home for a community of creative talent and develop an authentic, homegrown industry of local, unique fashion brands as well.
