A group show were fashion, art, sound, and culture collide in a shared world celebrating Cleveland’s creative future.

Aawful Friends Part 2 is a group show curated by Aaron D. Williams, bringing together visual art, fashion, music, print, and installation for one night at Zygote Press.

The show brings together artists, designers, models, musicians, and other creatives from Cleveland and beyond. Guests can explore artwork throughout the space, experience a live fashion show, hear music, meet the people involved, and be part of the world we’ve been building through Aawful Aaron and Young Cleveland Renaissance.

A Note From Aawful Aaron:

Aawful Friends Part 2 continues what I started with the first Aawful Friends: The Future Is Now. This time, I’m thinking less about technology versus traditional art and more about us: the people making things, building community, and deciding what Cleveland’s creative future can look like.

I want this to feel bigger than just an art show or fashion show. It’s a chance to bring different creative scenes into the same room, introduce people to each other, and show what can happen when we create our own opportunities.

The future isn’t something we’re waiting for. We’re making it together.
