PARKLUXE 2012 - SATURDAY OCTOBER 6
Presented by HYATT AUTO GALLERY MERCEDES BENZ

An event created for local Calgary Fashion Designers and Artists, to annually showcase their work spreading across North America. Parkluxe is an evening themed for luxury labels and a sophisticated audience, which ultimately impacts the Calgary market. Calgary may not have a huge Fashion scene, but this once a year event connects all Industry professionals, giving locals an event to look forward to. Caitlin Power, Lara Persber, Bridgette Berman, and Anne B, are just a few to name, which we will be seeing again for 2012. The first year of Parluxe was a total success, leaving huge city buzz and a highly anticipated audience for 2012. All Parkluxe proceeds go towards funding other Park Art Events, supporting the Artists of Calgary. PARK is also responsible for Spring’s largest fashion event, ParkShow and hold regular industry mixers and ParkSales throughout the year.

Runway Monthly is the anticipated event that will quench Calgary's thirst for glamour. It is an opportunity for designers, retailers, and stylists to display their product directly to the end consumer in an intimate environment. This monthly series of events will include fashion shows featuring designers, boutiques, and stylists - in short, the fashion addict’s monthly fix.

Held regularly throughout the fall

Market Collective is a monthly showcase of local artists, designers, photographers, musicians and more. Each collective charges a donation at the door, and gives the community a chance to interact one-on-one with independent artists creating work in Calgary. The event was created to strengthen the artistic community in Calgary, and has quickly grown to be a staple in the Calgary community, with thousands of people attending each weekend. Every market features new artists, so each event is unique.
