Ensemble: The Thread’s Fashion Show took place Sunday, April 30th at the Madison Masonic Center for the general public.
From the eclectic selection of runway designs to live music and dance, Ensemble was experienced from many perspectives. The production engaged a range of audiences through a mash-up of classical and contemporary music and design. With a shared vision, we created unity in diversity, embraced the essence of inclusivity, and celebrated each element of an ensemble.
