The fashion industry is constantly changing and trends are evolving. We want to share the ways in which Boston's best designers and business owners are thriving in the Fashion industry. On November 13th, the Roxbury Innovation Center will host Fashion Innovation Night from 5-9PM with resources, tools, and information for entrepreneurs and startups in fashion.
This Free event will include a hands-on workshop led by RIC's own Gia Manigat and Founder of Q Made It, Quontay Turner; to customize clothing using computer-aided design with vinyl and laser cuts.
