American Girl Fashion Show

Make it an American Girl® weekend! New this year to the Annual Benefit Sale is the American Girl Fashion Show®, hosted by Madison Children’s Museum. Join us at the Madison Marriott West, conveniently located near the sale, for one of three fun-filled shows for girls and their families, friends, and favorite dolls! Celebrate the experience of being a girl whether yesterday or today, through a colorful presentation of historical and contemporary fashions. Enjoy a macaroni and cheese bar, enter to win door prizes, and learn how clothing has changed over the years to reflect history, culture, and girls' individual styles.
