Like the robin and the crocus, Trashion Refashion is a sign of spring in Bloomington. This year’s runway show at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater is the 15th annual exhibition of clothing designs made of repurposed materials. Molecular biologist Bettina Kehoe is typical of the amateur designers who dabble in recycled couture. They join artists and trained designers in producing more than 50 looks on display this year. Stephen Hale is president of the Center for Sustainable Living, the financial beneficiary of the fundraiser.
Host Michael Glab chats with Bloomington’s most fascinating people.
