Fashionistas, it’s again time to dive into the nearest recycling bin and start preparing for the Sonoma Community Center’s third annual Trashion Fashion show to be held in the spring at a date yet to be determined.

  Ecologists, artists and designers are all invited to create haute couture from recycled materials or repurposed clothing from the nearest thrift store. The application deadline is 5 p.m. on Friday, March 15.

  A total of $1,250 in cash will be awarded including $200 for “Best in Teen Category.”

  This call to artists is open to all individuals or groups ages 9 and up.

  Find a prospectus and application at sonomacommunitycenter.org or at the center’s main office, 276 E. Napa St.

The Trashion Show was inspired by the center’s commitment to promoting sustainable living.
