SANFORD, JUNE 10, 2026 – The DRIP Fashion Show returns to the MANN Center for the Arts on June 28 for a 4 p.m. exhibition of fashion, music, storytelling and youth empowerment. Tickets are $5 at the door with proceeds supporting Lee County Cultural Arts (LCCA).
“Lee County Cultural Arts is a creative space for our youth to express their creativity, and a way to improve their self esteem and develop true social skills,” said Derrick and Kimia Collins Washington, founders of LCCA. “It’s the old fashioned way, without relying on the internet – a platform for young people to showcase their talents, celebrate diversity, and connect with mentors and peers who inspire growth. DRIP blends art, style, and self-expression while strengthening community pride.”
