    To kick off Black History Month, on this episode we are joined by Founder and Creative Director of Springclean CT Anderson. Springclean is a non-profit whose mission is to create jobs and reduce landfill space by repurposing textile material in new and innovative ways. This episode was recorded during a Halloween event hosted by Springclean at the Innovation Barn in Charlotte North Carolina where patrons could come in and epicycle a halloween costume with pieces from the Springclean closet. Due to this being our first live event recording for our podcast you will hear some background noise from the event itself. As a bonus you can head to our YouTube channel and watch this interview and see Springclean and CT in action and also get to see a couple of Halloween costumes!
