Untrashed Recycled Fashion Show and Trashy Hat Promenade
The Untrashed Recycled Fashion Show and Trashy Hat Promenade, headed up by local performance artist Babs A’Delic each year, is a popular mainstay of the Grand Avenue Festival.
Ms. A’Delic’s whimsical fashion show, with fashions created from recycled materials and other discarded items, begins at the PAPA stage at Unexpected Gallery at 734 W. Polk Street at 3pm, promenading along Grand Avenue, traveling north to the courtyard at Thirdspace, 1028 Grand, for the judging and prizes. Fashions are created from newspapers, stuffed animals, plastic juice containers, foil, cardboard, playing cards, paper, cloth, caution tape, plastic bags, cat food bags, and a variety of other “trash”.
