With a playful mix of art and fashion, galerie 103 presents invited talent from Hawai`i, California and Oregon to join their creative forces for a night of one-of-a-kind runway style entitled reIMAGINED PAPERWORKS

This whimsical evening will fuse porcelain doll perfection with paper-made innovation resulting in a youthful craftiness of unique paper bag fashions styled on porcelain doll-inspired models.
