Groups & Organizations                                 back to top

The Felt Club - http://www.feltclub.com/info.php
         
Founded in May 2006, Felt Club is a craft fair featuring the best and brightest of the SoCal craft scene. Vendors show off a wide variety of handmade goods, including handbags and jewelry, baby gifts and paper products, clothing and housewares, one-of-a-kind plushies and original artwork. The offerings may vary, but what our vendors have in common is quality, originality, and fun.

The Los Angeles Bazaar Bizarre - http://www.bazaarbizarre.org/

Bazaar Bizarre began in 2001 in the Boston-area as a hodge-podge of friends and acquaintances cobbling together their handcrafted DIY wares to sell and staging an offbeat entertainment extravaganza. In 2004 the Bazaar Bizarre spread to Los Angeles and Cleveland and in 2006 Make took us under their wing to include the Bazaar Bizarre as part of the Maker Faire in the San Francisco-area every spring. The Bazaars in Boston, Cleveland, Los Angeles and San Francisco happen every year during peak holiday shopping season in December.
