Recycled Hat Fashion Show

Show off your creative skills using recycled materials!

At the Garrard County Earth Day Festival this year our fashion show theme is going to be Recycled Hats.
We have some special guests, the Miss Kentucky Teen Pageant Winners, that will be strutting their stuff on the runway.

Everyone will have an opportunity to create hats at the festival if they come a little early or they can make one at home. The hats need to have some recycled materials incorporated into the design to enter the show. They can be made from old cereal boxes or cardboard, or by using an old hat and decorating with flowers made from plastic bags or bottle caps or anything that may have normally been thrown out or reused for this purpose. We will be giving prizes to everyone that participates.

The show starts at 11:30 am. Get your creativity in gear, it’ll be fun! Call 859-339-4599 or 859-548-5080, if you have any questions.
