Recycle the Runway in partnership with Keep Mecklenburg Beautiful
Each year, this unique fashion show offers students attending a Mecklenburg County public or private high school an amazing opportunity to design, create and model an Avant Garde outfit that is crafted from recyclable materials. Recycle the Runway has been held for the last six-years in Mecklenburg County and has returned over $100,000 in prize money directly to local schools.
Due to the continued presence of COVID-19 within our community, the 2021 Recycle the Runway show has been cancelled for Spring 2021.
