The Lighthouse District's own Cat's Meow is playing a role in the West End Celebration's Imagine. Recreate. Fashion. Show and UpCycle Contest, and would like to announce a call for fashion designers!

The West End Celebration has long been known for art of every genre. This year, it will feature a spectacular fashion show entitled Imagine. Recreate. Fashion., focusing on sustainable fashion design, using pre-owned garments from Cat's Meow as the raw materials for expression.

The UpCycle Contest, taking place during the first half of the fashion show, will be an event at which each local contestant, selected from among a pool of applicants, will present fashions he or she has designed that are inspired by a specific Monterey peninsula artist using free materials from Cat's Meow. At the show, a panel of judges will select their favorites in each category, and the overall winner will be awarded one of twenty spots in the next Community Palette Annual Event.
