SUMMARY:FashionTeens at Rio Theatre
DESCRIPTION:FashionTeens at Rio Theatre\nFriday\, April 19\, 6:30 – 8:30pm \n\n\n\nFashionTeens is a countywide event where students in grades 6-12 showcase wearable clothing that is made from recycled\, upcycled or re-used materials. \n\n\n\n\nFor 13 years\, FashionTeens has been bringing teenagers from across Santa Cruz County together for a fabulous\, fashion runway evening. After working for months\, students with a passion for fashion and creativity design\, source\, create\, construct and showcase their own unique piece of fashion art. With a focus on the environment and the impact we have on it\, most creations are made from recycled or repurposed items giving new value to what otherwise would end up in our landfill. By literally taking fashion into their own hands\, students express their creativity\, gain design and engineering skills\, explore complex social issues\, experience creative problem-solving\, gain confidence and learn valuable life skills. \nAfter all their hard work\, there is nothing more rewarding than the excited\, beaming faces of these teenagers as they walk the runway in front of cheering crowds. We hope you will join us for this year’s production of FashionTeens! \nFashionTeens began at Mission Hills Middle School 13 years ago and now encompasses all of Santa Cruz County. We have had participants from over thirteen different schools across the county. Teachers\, mentors and volunteers support the creative endeavors of each student throughout the process. Today\, FashionTeens is a production of the Santa Cruz County Office of Education. \nBe sure to save your space: Advance free tickets: www.fashionteens-santacruz.com
