One of the coolest places in town is Austin Creative Reuse, which has been on the forefront of sustainable arts and crafting for over 10 years. For the center’s innovative Reuse on the Runway fashion show, designers are tasked with creating high-fashion looks with all reused materials, and the results are stunning! Start off the evening with a visit to the Glam Station to prep for photos, and bid on something from the silent auction or try the Cash to Treasure game as DJ Hip Stir sets the mood. Then settle in for a showcase of over 50 looks from 30 designers, emceed by Amy Everett with ASL interpretation. Afterward, get an up-close look at some of the designs and marvel at the miracles they make happen with materials otherwise destined for the landfill. – Kat McNevins
