Inside the event
Photos from the evening are being added to this page — check back soon, or see more of Corey's live event painting work in the meantime.
The evening moved through a tight program at Nordstrom Phipps Plaza: a cocktail reception opened the night, followed by a panel discussion moderated by a Harlem's Fashion Row representative and featuring a panel of celebrated Black and Latino fashion designers. The reception then resumed with informal modeling, shopping, and a meet-and-greet with the designers before the celebration wrapped for the night.
Corey set up on-site ahead of the doors opening and painted throughout the evening — a 3x4-foot canvas — building a large-scale acrylic piece live as guests moved through the store, giving shoppers an unscripted, behind-the-scenes look at how a finished work of art comes together.
