Vibrant sparkles, radical acceptance, flamboyant creativity, safety in expression, unbridled joy—these are just a few phrases that describe this year’s Habitat for Humanity in Whatcom County Trashion Show. The show was created six years ago by Hillary Pritchard, Habitat’s operations manager, as part of Habitat’s annual auction in support of repurposing and reusing materials. Now the Trashion Show has blossomed into a stand-alone event, thanks to the tremendous support from the public. The first solo performance took place in 2024 and was a huge success. ✨
