Montclair once again hosted a fantastic Montclair Fashion Night Out to a standing room only crowd at the Wellmont Theater on Sunday. This was the fifth year in a row for the event and it started with a dramatic aerial presentation by Studio Air, followed by runway shows that wowed the crowd, both by the variety of apparel from Montclair boutiques as well as creations by the Fashion Dept. of Montclair State University.
“Montclair Fashion Night Out 2016 was a great event, and more importantly, it’s an example of how great our COMMUNITY is! I tip my hat to all the volunteers that devoted their time and talent to hairdressing, makeup, food, and the production of show,” says Israel Cronk, executive director, Montclair BID. “I’m proud to have partnered with Montclair State University and worked with 10 dynamite interns from their Fashion Department. This marks a new direction of town-wide inclusion for the downtown Montclair. Montclair Center BID hopes to inspire our community to not only shop local but to hire local, too.
Cronk says Montclair Center BID would like to thank the Wellmont Theatre for being a strong and community minded partner, adding “we’d like to acknowledge our sponsor NJPADS.com for understanding the importance of supporting local businesses. Special thanks to Joann Smalls & Andrea Arcila for coordinating our restaurants and leading our team of interns and volunteers. My right and left hand behind the scenes Ann Marie Sekeres & Diane Israel and Misa Kastrati & Robert Greco for being the magicians backstage!”
