Wow, it seems good things continue to happen for us at Try Change!
We recently submitted one of our designs into a T-Shirt competition promoted by Art Whino the new gallery located at the National Harbor in MD. We, along with 19 other shirts, were selected out of all the designs submitted!
The twenty winning designs (Try Change included!) will be showcased in a fashion show and exhibition at Crystal Couture on February 24th, 2009. Crystal Couture is a two week extravaganza of fun and fashion. The event will feature sample sales, runway and trunk shows from designers, local boutiques, and area salons. Each night will feature a theme with unique drinks, food tastes, and exciting fashions and music. The event is free and open to the public so everyone please come out and support local fashion & art with us!
