Fifth House Ensemble

alt

 

Fifth House Ensemble is seeking fashion designers for collaboration on its upcoming subscription season. Each concert will weave together stories from classic Fairy Tales, and we are looking for garments to be worn, used on dress forms, or possibly captured on film or video to represent setting, characters, and emotions within the stories.

Budget is limited, so we expect to use garments already in existence on a borrowed basis, but will provide credit in our programs, marketing materials, and more. We hope not only to introduce a new artistic element into our work, but to increase the visibility of Chicago's talented designers. To get involved, please contact Adam Marks, Director of Artistic Programming for Fifth House, at adam@fifth-house.com. For more information on Fifth House Ensemble, visit www.fifth-house.com.
