Trashion Fashion Sonoma

The Trashion Fashion Show will be live and in-person on Saturday, April 6th from the Sonoma Veterans Memorial Hall (126 1st Street West, Sonoma, 95476) with a 2:00 PM matinée and a 5:00 PM evening show.
Outrageous head-to-toe designs, made from recycled materials and found objects, will once again walk the runway handmade by community members of all ages who answered the challenge of turning trash into wearable art.

Costa’s Tacos Food Stand will be available 1 hour prior to the 2:00 PM & 5:00 PM Showings. Pre Order (limited menu) will be available with a link provided on your runway ticket receipt.

In transitioning to a future zero waste event, Trashion invites you to be a part of the change! Please bring a non-breakable glass to the Runway Show and enjoy a $2 discount on selected beverages. We will also have water dispensers available. Bring your own cup and help us reduce our event’s footprint.
