Sustainability Month
COVID-19 Update: Due to the recent outbreak of COVID-19, Sustaining Pacific has canceled or postponed in-person Sustainability Month events. Many will be rescheduled once the situation has improved. See below for more information and follow our Instagram (@SustainingPacific16) for the latest updates.
The University of the Pacific has set aside the month of April each year as Sustainability Month. During the month we celebrate and highlight sustainable and green activities on all three campuses. Some activities have included: a bike repair station, Green Fashion Show, celebrity guest speakers such as Annie Leonard and Eric Schlosser, the Beehive Collective and more. Each campus hosts a variety of activities based on the demands and desires of their students, faculty and staff.
Green Fashion & Art Show 2020
The 10th Annual Green Fashion & Art Show has been postponed and is planned to be rescheduled to Fall 2020.

1) Best in Show

3) Top Upcycled Piece (anything made from reused materials, garbage or recyclables)
