Join us for a night of fun and fashion.
Join us for a night of fun and fashion.
We are deeply grateful to our participants who spent their time and energy on creating fantasy-inspired outfits out of single-use plastic and textile waste. There were a variety of styles including recreations of known characters such as Elphaba and the Scarecrow from Wicked to abstract pieces resembling dandelions. The amount of dedication each participant displayed throughout the process is inspiring and we are already looking forward to next year’s creations! Next year’s Trash’n Fash’n theme will be announced in Spring 2027.
We would also like to extend our gratitude to Perennial Harbor for allowing us to rent their charming and intimate space, DJ Sun for providing the soundtrack for the night, and the Well-Fed Ed Food Truck for keeping everyone nourished with healthy and environmentally sustainable options. We appreciate your support for our nonprofit’s mission of mitigating the plastic pollution crisis.
Meet the Organizers
Lane Tompkins
Hi! I’m Lane Tompkins, a senior at Isaac Bear Early College High School and a student organizer behind Trash’n Fash’n. Working on the Trash’n Fash’n show has been so rewarding and I have loved watching it grow. My favorite thing is watching participants bring their ideas to life into fashionable pieces that actually make people think. Being a part of an event that brings different communities together for a shared mission is what makes it all worth it!
Outside of this, you can usually find me painting, playing guitar, spending time on the water, going to live music, grabbing coffee with friends, or trying something new. I’m drawn to creativity in all forms and love being around people and experiences that feel inspiring.
Marley Mitchell
Hi! I’m Marley Mitchell, a senior at Isaac Bear Early College High School and I’ve been a student organizer for the Trash’n Fash’n show for the past 3 years. In being a part of the Trash’n Fash’n show I have had the ability to connect with community members and share my passion about environmental sustainability and fashion! It has been a pleasure to watch our participants from all ages use their creativity to help educate the public and understand the impact of their consumerism.
In my spare time, I love going to the beach with friends and family, dancing, trying new coffee shops, and thrifting! I hope Trash’n Fash’n will continue to inspire the community in regards to environmental sustainability and individualistic creativity.
