Celebrate Earth Week with Fashion that Gives Back!

Join us in making a difference by giving your old wardrobe a new life to support the future of Earth Week! Clean out your closet of gently used clothing and drop them into the bins around campus (dorm lobbies, Danna Center lower level, Monroe Hall lobby), and the student-run design group, The Collective, will artistically upcycle them into new fashionable Earth Week-themed statements that will be available during the Sustainability Fair! 

Wetland Watchers Animal Showcase

The LaBranche Wetland Watchers is a nationally recognized school-based service-learning project that involves a core group of 200 sixth, seventh, and eighth-grade students in a variety of service activities to improve their local habitat and community. Students lead field trips, host community events, and speak to over 70,000 people a year through outreach events. Through education, service, and awareness, Hurst Middle students lead a community effort for wetland conservation.

Walter Anderson Sale & Auction

The Earth Week Sustainability Fair will have opportunities to participate in the auction and place bids on the Anderson piece. We will have Earth Week team members available at the Walter Anderson Sale Table to walk you through the bidding process or answer any questions you may have. 

 In addition to the large Walter Anderson piece, we will also have a variety of affordable non-auction items for purchase, perfect for students who want to take home iconic pieces of Anderson art. We will be selling miniature (5x7) Walter Anderson prints, as well as tote bags & t-shirts with screen-printed Walter Anderson designs. These items will be available at the Walter Anderson Sale Table during the Sustainability Fair. 

Bidding closes at 7 p.m. on April 22nd with the conclusion of the Sustainability Fair.
