Your support has a direct impact on the creative opportunities of our students. Thanks to donors like you, last summer, Fashion students were able to immerse themselves in Italy`s rich traditions of craftsmanship, innovation, and fashion while engaging directly with designers, manufacturers, and entrepreneurs. Students visited companies experimenting with sustainable materials, explored family-owned businesses where generations of craftsmanship continue to shape production, and gained insight into the cultural values that influence Italian design.
