NCA plans 100th birthday celebration

The National Costumers Association has announced the plans for its 100th birthday celebration, scheduled for 3-6 August 2023.

As the Association nears a century of costuming in August next year, it is planning an event to remember its history, celebrate its present and look to tomorrow. The celebration will take place at the Kansas City (MO) Marriott Country Club Plaza.

The past, present and future of costuming and of the industry body itself will be highlighted with social events, seminars, networking and a once-in-a-century celebrations of the NCA.

99 years ago this week, in the Washington Hotel in Indianapolis, IN, Major Harrelson and seven others organised and created the National Costumers Association. Over those 99 years, the organisation has seen growth, challenges, successes, and a century of memories.

Watch out for more details on NCA social media platforms, and costumers.org.
