TEMECULA – The 2016 Recycled Art & Fashion Show will be held at the Monte De Oro Winery & Vineyards Friday, May 13 to show the art creations and clothing fashions that can be made from repurposed and discarded materials.
The show will be from 6:30 to 10 p.m. at the winery, 35820 Rancho California Road in Temecula.
The proceeds from the show sales go to support the arts, arts education, environmental awareness in the community and promote creative, eco-friendly alternative art and fashion, hand-crafted from repurposed and discarded materials. Some of the proceeds will benefit Mt. San Jacinto College arts programs.
The annual gallery exhibition and runway event, now in its fifth year, was inspired by International Earth Day. It brings together established, professional artists and talented middle school through college-level art students creating a rich range of designers, collaborators and mentors. Art students present with and learn from regional designers and artists in a professional, competitive venue. Work is pre-judged for inclusion by the Event Planning Committee. At the event, a panel of five outside judges will select winners and present awards.
The fashion show runway models represent a spectrum of real body-types including young and old models, couples, family groups, theatrical and dance performers and southwest California pageant titleholders. Fashion designs are selected based on innovative use of recycled material, expression of humanitarian and ecological statements, craftsmanship, transformation of the model and original design.
The gallery show and runway events present highly expressive, unusual and beautiful art and fashion. The Recycled Art & Fashion Show promotes designs inspired by but not limited to current issues and events, ceremonial costume, global, ethnic traditions and futuristic sci-fi visions.
