RALEIGH (September 2, 2009) If you’re sticking around for Labor Day Weekend, you can’t miss the FashionSPARK cocktail party hosted by Poole’s Diner this Sunday, Sept. 6 from 5-7 p.m.
Chef Ashley Christiansen is working with FashionSPARK organizers to design a signature menu of hors d’oeuvres and cocktails for the event. The cost is just $50 per person, which includes all food and drink.
Mingle with this year’s amazing crop of designers, enjoy music by DJ SPCLGST, and help support one of the Triangle’s most anticipated fashion events of the year. Please contact allison@sparkcon.com to reserve seats as space is limited.

Designers partner with area salons for hair and makeup styling and local recording artists for the walk down the runway.
FashionSPARK is produced by Allison Beale, with support from Isaac Panzarella, production manager, Jessie Clough, salon coordinator, Angel Feimster-Montoya, talent coordinator, Andi Shelton, ShopSPARK organizer and Jennifer Powell, media coordinator.
About SPARKcon:
SPARKcon showcases local creative talent in the NC Triangle. For four days, Raleigh’s Fayetteville Street, public spaces, clubs and stages will be filled with art, music, dance, film, fashion, design, proposals, and more.
Celebrating local cultural richness and empowering action through an open-source approach to collaboration and cross-pollination, SPARKcon is not a funded city program or an economic development stunt. It’s completely grassroots and by the people for the people! Join us as we explore the creative spirit of the Triangle!
