Robinson. Inspired by music, scriptwriting, and her loved ones, her creations epitomize elegance and innovation.
In addition to the fashion show, attendees can look forward to a stellar musical lineup featuring acclaimed artists such as Edi Kí, Tree Fiddy Trio, Native to the Parish, The Woodlawn High School Marching Band, and DJ Breeze, with more artists set to be announced soon. The festival grounds will also be teeming with a diverse array of local vendors and an Artist Row, providing a platform for the community’s burgeoning artistic talent to shine.
