Arts for Autism brings together Northern Virginia’s fashion and autism communities for a magical evening that celebrates the creativity and talent of people on the spectrum. Proceeds of this one-of-a-kind event directly benefit the Autism Society of Northern Virginia, which serves local families touched by autism with a range of programs, resources, supports and family activities.

Stars of the gala are model-fundraisers who encourage their friends and family to support them through online donations or ticket sales. The day of the event these model-fundraisers will walk the runway side-by-side with children, teens and young adults on the spectrum.
