The Open House Party is the official launch party for THE HOME — a two-day showcase of local indie fashion, emerging arts, and DIY retail as part of #DCRESIDENCE @DCWEEK. This exhibition will activate three empty storefronts at 1629 L Street NE, transformed into the following:
• "The Study" by Birds of a Pleather — a hub designed by the Birds of a Pleather collective (formerly with Worn Magazine) for taking a pseudo-sociological look at bringing communities together via identity, as examined through the lens of fashion and the way we present ourselves externally
• "The Pantry" — the official pop-up shop of #DCRESIDENCE, starring local DIY retailers selling swag ranging from hoodies and bags by DECOY, to boozy baked goods from Crunkcakes
• "The Icebox" by The Fridge — featuring a special exhibition called "Leftovers" and curated by Alex Goldstein, gallery director for The Fridge
