Celebrate the queen inside us all with an evening of fashion, art, and music at an opening party for A Queen Within: Adorned Archetypes.

Focusing on providing space for creative exchange and empowerment, MoPOP invites guests to explore how fashion can be used as a tool to examine archetypes and identities alongside local fashion designers and creative interpreters whose work intersects with that explored in the gallery.

A Queen Within: Adorned Archetypes is organized by Barrett Barrera Projects and curated by MUSEEA.

BEYOND THE RUNWAY
