Fashion challenge focus for Unity’s winter fair
November 19, 2009 by localnews
The Unity Centre is holding a winter fair with a difference this year, with live music and an eco-fashion challenge to aspiring designers.
The date is 12 December and the venue is the Glasgow Social Centre at 66 Osbourne Street in the city centre.
Run in conjunction with the Radical Independent Book Fair and Student Action for Refugees, the day kicks off at 11am with sales of books, music, clothes and homemade produce.
The eco-fashion show, which starts at around 8pm, will showcase the work of the Unity Art Fashion Group with outfits made from recycled clothes and other materials and a winner will be chosen by the audience on the evening.
The fashion group meets every Tuesday at 4pm in the social centre and will, from January 2010, have a professional textile artist leading the group in projects, with materials provided by Unity’s shop in Govan.
The evening will end with a fundraising gig to benefit the work of Unity and its campaigns. Acts, DJs and details are yet to be finalised.
Organisations wishing to set up a stall at the Unity winter fair should contact Glasgow Social Centre through their website glasgowsocialcentre.org.uk and email glasgowsocialcentre@riseup.net.
