Columbus Fashion Academy

Discover the magic of creating and running your brand with our "Thrift & Flip Fashion Entrepreneurship Camp," from June 10th to 14th. Tailored for young visionaries aged 8-14, this camp fuses the excitement of thrift hunting with the thrill of creation and entrepreneurship. Participants will dive into the world of sustainable fashion, transforming pre-loved finds into their own designer collections.

Throughout the week, campers will learn the ins and outs of thrift shopping, garment repurposing, and the essentials of branding and marketing. They'll select from an array of clothes provided at no additional cost, crafting their unique line of upcycled fashion. The experience culminates on June 14th with a special marketplace event from 3 PM - 4 PM, reserved for parents and VIPs, where campers pitch their brands and sell their creations.

The grand finale featuring this dynamic product presentation, might be paired with a spontaneous runway show—highlighting the unpredictability and creativity of young entrepreneurs.

Additionally, participants are invited to return in the evening to join the luxboheme vintage marketplace at the Franklinton Friday event. Here, they can continue selling their innovative designs alongside Columbus Fashion Academy artists, celebrating fashion and sustainability under the stars. This camp isn’t just about fashion; it's a crash course in creativity, sustainability, and business savvy, all rolled into one incredible week!
