Artist Commune: Fashion Show

Get ready to unleash your creativity with Urban Arts Space as we are thrilled to announce April’s Artist Commune: Fashion Show, where we will challenge ourselves to create garments out of thrifted clothing and recycled materials.

We invite visitors to participate in a clothing swap and then alter these clothes within an hour, using materials provided by Urban Arts Space. Please bring any clothing items and accessories you’d like to upcycle. Once the time runs out, artists will showcase their work on a runway and explain its significance to them.

In the spirit of Earth Day, we want artists to consider what sustainability means to them, using nature as a guiding theme. Explore the relationship between fashion and the natural world, and consider how you can adapt your creations to reflect this connection. What patterns, colors, and shapes can we draw from nature? How can fashion tell a story about our relationship with the natural world?
