SUMMARY:Exhibition: Nurturing the Artist: Student Life From the FIT Special Collections — Opens
DESCRIPTION:Now Appearing! FIT recruitment poster circa 1970s/1980s (FITA Promotional Materials: Special Collections and FIT College Archive)\nNovember 1–December 1\, 2025\nArt and Design Gallery\, Back Gallery \nFIT’s Special Collections and College Archives\, part of the Gladys Marcus Library\, is known for its fashion documentation through rare periodicals\, fashion plates\, monographs detailing all aspects of the industry\, and unique manuscript collections. These materials provide entrance into often unpublished behind-the-scenes processes critical to fashion design\, marketing\, forecasting\, and research. \nThe College Archives\, a lesser-known part of the Special Collections\, documents the history of the college\, our evolving programs\, and the student body over eight decades. At this momentous time\, on the cusp of ushering in new leadership when longstanding President Joyce F. Brown retires\, we delved into the College Archives to explore documentary evidence of how students\, their work\, and campus life in general has been recorded since the college’s inception in 1944. \nMoving forward\, the Special Collections of FIT is actively working to expand its holdings to include more contemporary and diverse designers and makers operating in a variety of fields\, as well as aiming to capture a broader geographic scope of work across fashion\, design\, and art. \nTwo newly acquired\, as yet unprocessed\, collections included in this exhibition—the Douglas Says Collection and the Steven Cutting Collection—are examples of this expanded vision. \nNurturing the Artist is curated by FIT’s Special Collections and College Archives\, part of the Gladys Marcus Library. \nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.
