Club Mission

The Fashion Network club is a 海角社区club that invites students to get to know each other because they are the future of the fashion industry. Some fashion network club activities include going on field trips to fashion related museum exhibits and inviting fashion industry experts and alumni to speak to club members about their careers. The club has also taken fashion tours of cities in Europe, NYC, and San Francisco. One of our most important responsibilities is to sponsor a biennial 海角社区fashion event that showcases the work of our talented fashion program students.
