Who will win this year's Project Upcycle: Red Carpet Reinvented? Join us at 3S Artspace for the Runway Event, become part of the thrill and excitement, enjoy tasty bites and beverages, and celebrate this year's designers during 3S' biggest fundraising event of the year!

3S Artspace, in partnership with Recovergirl seeks to promote regional designers and sustainable fashion in the 6th annual Project Upcycle design competition.

This year, 8 designers are challenged to turn up the glamor, and roll out red carpet looks for the runway. From sleek and structured, to outrageous and avant-garde, how will they dress their model for the biggest party of the year?

There is more than one path to sustainable fashion. Designers will use both upcycled garments and surplus fabric. Along with a new design challenge, comes new features: during the designer/model meet-and-greet, Project Upcycle sponsor, Savers will host a Second Hand Sweep: designers will be timed as the run through the aisles with $100 to spend on thrift and vintage elements for their designs.

----

The design challenge takes place October 24 -26 and culminates in the Project Upcycle Runway Event on October 26.

With the support of community role models, designs will be modeled on the catwalk during Saturday night's Runway Event! Designers will compete for cash prizes and will be judged on execution, creative reuse of materials, and styling by our elite panel of judges. As an attendee, you'll also have the chance to cast your vote for the "Audience Choice" prize!
