RAGS  Wearable Art Sale and Juried Gallery

RAGS is a juried wearable art competition and sale that benefits the YWCA’s domestic violence prevention and intervention programs. Produced entirely by volunteers, sponsors, and underwriting donations, RAGS offers guests an opportunity to view and acquire fabulous wearable art and accessories created by artisans from across the country. A portion of all sales helps the YWCA keep abused women and children safe, healthy, and self-sufficient. In 2009, RAGS raised $80,000 for the YWCA!

Mark your calendars! The 2010 RAGS Wearable Art Show will kick off with the Gala event on March 11, 2010. The sale and gallery will run Friday through Sunday, March 12-14, 2010. The ticketed Gala Event on Thursday, March 11, 2010, provides an opportunity to preview the sale, make purchases early, and enjoy great food, wine, and company.
