UtilituSEW will be hosting the “Rubbish Renewed Accessory Wall” creation this Friday, November 18th from 5-8.  We will be playing with ‘trash’ to make wearable jewelry and accessories to potentially pair with the final outfits for the runway shows. Feel free to bring appropriate items to add to the pile of goodies to be reused! Ideas: bottle caps, soda can tabs, tin cans, cereal boxes, six pack holders, glass jar lids, plastic containers/lids… anything else you think would make a rad accessory! This is a free event.

SAT., NOVEMBER 26TH (6-10pm)

A “peak” into this year’s runway shows.  Watch our pre-show photo shoot at Studio 3 by Tambi Lane Photography.  The garments featured int he shoot will be available for purchase in our live auction at THE RUBBISH RENEWED ECO FASHION SHOW.  Location – Old Ironworks Complex at 50 Scott Street (same area as Sparrow Bakery).

Don’t miss the 2011 Rubbish Renewed Eco Fashion Show!

Rubbish Renewed Eco Fashion Show fuses environmental responsibility, funky fashion and community. Join other socially conscious individuals for an evening of sustainable fashion,showcasing styles that the future demands. We invite you to reconsider the value of trash and celebrate the creative, sustainable spirit of Bend.

Rooted in a love of fashion, an appreciation of art and a passion for the planet, Rubbish Renewed Eco Fashion Show is a fundraising event for REALMS Charter School’s Arts Program. An eclectic, wearable art runway show, a live and silent auction, and a gallery-style marketplace (where contributing local artists sell and showcase their work), will showcase how we “fashion” our lives while lessening waste.

REALMS arts education inspires students to share content knowledge through artistic expression that synthesizes experiences and educates others about our world.
