Neu Dawn 7

Neu Dawn is an art experience created and curated by Courtney Matthews that happens one day only. This art/fashion/music event involves over 70 creatives at once. The theme each year is based around a specifically chosen song, as well as the Pantone Color of the Year. There are 20 art installations that consist of an Artist creating a 7ft. tall piece of art, and a costume designer is paired up with each artist who then creates a wearable piece of art inspired by what their artist has done. On the day of the event, a live model wears the costume in front of their assigned piece of art. Because this is a collaborative effort that the artist and designer do not work side by side, this day is the first time the costume has been in front of the art. This helps to create a truly unique experience for all who are involved. Admission: $5 cash at the door. 100% of proceeds goes to support the Summer Art program at Alabama Contemporary Art Center.
