About this event
SUSTAINABLE WEARABLE ART CHALLENGE
Create an avant garde, wearable art masterpiece using a thrifted, recycled and upcycled items and a pack of resourced materials provided by the ReMaker Space and Envirohub.
Use “found” materials such as items that were otherwise considered trash, that you bought from an op shop or you found in your garage! The materials do not have to be soft materials, this can be anything you already own that could be transformed into wearable art.
Since this is wearable art, you can really think outside of the square!
The only rules are is that you cannot buy ANY materials new, this includes fixings and embellishments and you MUST use at least 75% of the pack sourced from the ReMaker Space.
All creations need to be dropped off at Baycourt Theatre on Sunday 25th of July between 10am 10.30am for pre-judging. The catwalk event will begin at 3.30pm on the same day. You will need to provide a model and do your own hair and makeup if required.
Prizes will be awarded for the most creative group and single entries, with top prizes for ingenuity.
Challenge starts now and ends on Sunday 25th of July.
Please collect your resource pack from the ReMaker Space, located at Our Place on 91 Willow Street, Tauranga to start the challenge.
