Each year, the committee and volunteers for The Wearable Art Show highlight a unique component of wearable art. The goal is to showcase and educate about the many ways that art, jewellery and clothing can be constructed and embellished; spotlighting the makers, designers and artists who use these techniques.
Once selected, The Wearable Art Show committee creates an Artist Challenge – asking each of the participants in the show to incorporate the selected medium into their own art. These are displayed for show attendees to vote on and select their favourite.
The 2025 theme challenge is ‘The Theatre of Fashion’ and the featured artist is Richard Crossman.
For more than 30 years, Richard Crossman has been a professional costume designer for theatre and circus, film and television. This October, Richard will be bringing and displaying a number of these exceptional pieces as the Wearable Art Show’s honored Feature Artist.
The Wearable Art Show (TWAS) is Canada’s premier fashion show and sale for lovers of wearable works of art.
