Dress Code: Cozy

 

The Muslim Creatives Fest is a faith-guided event hosted on the premises of the MAS Queens Center. We ask all attendees to honor the mission and environment of the festival by adhering to a modest and respectful dress code.

 

Core Principle: Modesty and Comfort

 

We encourage attendees to dress in a manner that allows for comfort and full participation in all activities, while observing the spirit of Islamic modesty.

 

Guidelines for Men

 

  • Upper Body: We request that shirts cover the shoulders and chest.

  • Lower Body: Pants or shorts extending past the knee (e.g., trousers, jeans, or cargo shorts) are encouraged.

 

Guidelines for Women

 

  • General Modesty: Clothing should be loose-fitting, non-transparent, and cover the chest, midriff, and back.

  • Head Covering (Optional): While we warmly welcome people of all faiths and backgrounds, and a head covering is not mandatory for entry, many attendees and staff choose to observe hijab. We encourage dressing in a way that respects the majority environment.

 

Important Notes

 

  • Footwear: Comfortable, closed-toe shoes are recommended due to the size of the venue and the standing nature of the event.

  • Cultural Attire: We strongly encourage attendees to wear cultural or ethnic attire! This is a festival celebrating heritage and diversity.

  • Security: Event staff reserve the right to respectfully address attire that is deemed overly revealing, offensive, or disruptive to the family-friendly and faith-centered atmosphere of the festival.
