(SAN BERNARDINO, Calif.) The search is on! The Art Institute of California – Inland Empire is looking for high school seniors interested in pursuing a career in the fashion industry to enter The Art Institutes Passion for Fashion Competition.
The Passion for Fashion Competition was created to encourage and reward young fashion talent.

In addition to a full tuition scholarship, the grand prize winning student in each category will receive an all-expense- paid trip to New York City for Fashion Week in February 2009, a “meet and greet” at Seventeen Magazine’s offices and lunch with staff at Seventeen Magazine.
