Welcome to the National Foundation of Millinery Arts and Crafts, and thank you for visiting us.
The National Foundation of Millinery, Arts and Crafts is a non-profit organization. It was created as a vehicle to bring milliners, fashion, wearable arts,and accessory designers together.
The intent of the foundation is to bridge the gap between designers who have one great thing in common; '"We all love fashion".
Our mission is to bring together designers in order to work together , provide solutions to problems that are common to designers, and achieve the following:
(A)Provide facilities, and locations where we may all come to share ideas and information.
(B) Increase public awareness of designers who are usually not as well known, but create outstanding work.
(C) Create venues where each designer may showcase and sell their designs, such as festivals, conventions, trunk shows and other venues.
(D) Offer classes and seek out facilities to teach workshops to persons choosing to enter similar fields, as well as employment for persons wishing to teach.
(E) Give back to the community through fund raising events for charities, scholarships and other annual events.
(F) Act as a referral services to clients wishing particular styles and types of hats, and other wearable items..
(G) Create venues for clients who prefer one of a kind and designer specialty items, through fashion shows and other venues.
(H) Attract and contact buyers from major department store chains.
(I) Showcase all members as one unit at inside and outside events in various cities through the country.
So,..........if you are a designer, and interested in becoming a member and making a difference, or you have questions or comments please e-mail me;
