Organizer

The Wearable Art Show

The Wearable Art Show exists to benefit and inspire Canadian Artists by creating a unique event allowing others to explore, experience and purchase wearable art. The Wearable Art Show is a registered not-for-profit. We host an annual juried show and a curated fashion show for the promotion and sale of wearable art that is designed and made by Canadian artists. We are the original and longest running dedicated wearable art show in Canada. Each year there is an open challenge for artists to push their creativity to inspiring levels, using their medium to interpret the current show’s theme. 2023, “Recycled to ARTcycled”, artists are challenged to create wonderful wearables while repurposing waste.
