The 34th Annual Ebony Fashion
Fair will appear in Portland at the Ma­
sonic Temple, 1119S.W. Park Avenue,
on Friday, April 24, at 8:00 p.m. This
famed traveling fashion show is pro­
duced by Ebony Magazine and is spon­
sored by the Portland Chapter of LINKS,
Incorporated, for the benefit of Links’
Education and Scholarship fund.
Mrs. Eunice W. Johnson, producer
and director of the show, personally
selects fashions from the exclusive col­
lections of famed designers such as Bill
Blass, Bob Mackie, Fabrice, Bruce
Oldfield, Yves Saint Laurent, and Chris­
tian Dior.
Mrs. Johnson is meticulous and
thorough in purchasing the most spec­
tacular fashions available for Ebony-
Fashion Fair audiences.
More than 200 exquisite garments
complete with the latest accessories, 10
female and 2 male models, commenta­
tor, music director, stage and business
managers, and wardrobe staff travel
from coast to coast on a special char­
tered Greyhound Bus. Because of the
unprecedented demand for sponsorship
of the show by charitable organizations
around the country, Ebony Fashion Fair
now tours two seasons-the east and
midwest from September through De­
cember, and the southwest from Janu-
ary through M ay-appearing in more
than 191 cities.
Mrs. Jacquelyn Brown, General
Chairperson of the benefit performance,
indicates ticket sales are going excep­
tionally well and expects an even larger
attendance than last year. Tickets may
be purchased at Mrs. Cc’s Wigs (707
N.E. Fremont), House of Sound (3603
N. Williams Avenue), and P&J’s Beauty
and Barber Supplies (2948 N.E. Martin
Luther King Blvd.).
Proceeds from previous shows
made it possible to make contributions
to many local charities such as: POIC
(Portland Opportunities Industrializa­
tion Center); NAACP, locally and na­
tionally; St. Vincent De Paul Child
Development Center; Volunteers of
America Day Nursery; Fund, Portland
State University; Multnomah Associa­
tion for Retarded Children; United
Negro College Fund, locally and na­
tionally; American Cancer Society,
Oregon Division; Kidney Association
of Oregon; UNICF; Ethiopian And

Young Parents Program; Self Enhance­

beth Abts); Interstate Firehouse Cul­
tural Center; and many other groups
and organizations.
