Looking beyond PICA's TBA Festival, here's the first word about the second annual Runway to Rooftop fashion show benefiting Portland Institute for Contemporary Art. The show, sponsored in part by Nordstrom will feature, according to the press release, designs from Nordstrom’s “via C” department (which might include anything from D&G by Dolce & Gabbana and Catherine Malandrino to Prairie Underground...stay tuned while we nail down those all-important details). It goes down Saturday, September 23, at 6:30 PM in the Wieden + Kennedy Atrium, followed by a rooftop party with food, drink, and shopping. Tickets are $100, and of the many ways you could donate to PICA, or any other arts institution in town, this one is shaping up to be right up our alley.
