Mayoral Proclamation for Nashville Fashion Week, March 30, 2011

From the Office of the Mayor:

Whereas, the city of Nashville has a distinguished and nationally recognized history of celebrating the contributions of its creative citizens; and

Whereas, Nashville’s creative fashion industry and fashion-related entrepreneurship is an important part of the city’s economy; and

Whereas, Nashville Fashion Week is a celebration of creativity through fashion that brings together Nashville residents and visitors; and

Whereas, Nashville Fashion Week is organized through the generosity of private sponsors and the spirit of volunteerism, and supports the new Nashville Fashion Forward Fund of The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee.

Now, therefore, be it resolved that I, Karl F. Dean, Mayor of the Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County, do hereby encourage all Nashvillians to join me in celebrating Nashville Fashion Week.
