Pima's Fashion program showcases students' extensive experience and training in fashion design.

Fashion Arte

Pima's Fashion Design and Clothing Department presents Fashion Arte, its long-running annual Spring fashion show. This fundraiser show features student designs created throughout the Fall and Spring semesters, student-created brands, Pima Fashion alumni brands, as well as upcycling fashion designs created in collaboration with Good Will of Southern Arizona. This live event has grown over the years, from its first few years selling out the Proscenium Theatre at Pima's West campus to selling out the Fox Tucson Theatre in 2019.
