One of Rangeview Library District’s most anticipated events for mySummer – Anythink’s summer program – is happening at the district’s most remote location. With the help of Fashion Denver founder Brandi Shigley and the students of the Aveda Institute, Project Runway: 2050 is coming to Anythink Bennett.

The two-part program beginning Friday, June 11, offers teens a chance to work with Shigley on creating futuristic fashions as part of mySummer’s Time Travel theme. Using materials like duct tape, aluminum foil, bubble wrap and other found materials, the teams will create futuristic looks to be displayed at Anythink Bennett’s own runway show scheduled for Friday, June 18.

The day of the fashion show, Aveda Institute students will be on site to do hair and makeup for the models. The fashion show begins at 2:30 pm and is open to the public. Five teams will display their wares, teen designers will discuss their inspirations, and a panel of celebrity judges will be on hand to vote for the winner.

Teen designers interested in participating can sign up at anythinklibraries.org beginning Friday, June 4. Space is limited; registration required. There is no registration required to attend the fashion show.
