CIC 2021 Recovery Fund

The Costume Industry Coalition (CIC) has launched its 2020 Recovery Fund with the goal of raising $50,000 . 

As we closed out 2020, the majority of our Members faced steep deficits caused by the entertainment industry shut down.  Orders were either cancelled or indefinitely postponed, and timelines continue to shift for when the industry will recover.  We remain hopeful that, with assistance, we will be able to see our way through these uncertain times.  

Stand With Our Artisans

Donations will provide immediate assistance for the costume industry – a vital but often unseen ecosystem of artists who have been hard hit by the COVID-19 shutdowns and have gone for months without significant income.  

Help Ensure Our Community's Survival!

With your support, we will ensure our artisans will have a creative home to return to, so they can continue to bring their impeccible creations to stages and screens for years to come.
