Donate Clothes, Get Free FOA Admission At Runway Fashion Show: What To Know

LAGUNA BEACH, CA — A well-loved Festival of Arts event is making a return to Laguna Beach for the 16th year.

The Festival of Arts' 16th annual Runway Fashion Show takes place on Sunday, Aug. 10 at the Festival Green.

In partnership with Working Wardrobes, the Festival of Arts is offering free admission to guests who donate gently-used clothing at the gate the day of the event — one admission per person.

Attendees of this year's fashion show will see a blend of creativity, sustainability and high fashion, as festival exhibiting artists are invited to design and construct one-of-a-kind couture garments using only recycled, reclaimed and repurposed materials.

This year's runway lineup includes jewelry artist Linda Potichke, printmaker Anne Moore, ceramicists Mark Hendrickson and Paula Collins, and sculptors Jonathan Boyd and Valerie Killeen.

In addition, the Festival will invite junior artists to participate in the show for the first-time ever. A select few creatives are set to take the stage with their own fashion pieces.
