Started in Fall 2005 by artist Liz Rosino of Lucky Kat, this 'alternative craft fair' held in Columbus, OH featured 50 fabulous and original DIYers selling their hip handmade wares to a steady stream of fans and customers who were looking to purchase that one-of-a-kind gift for themselves or a loved one.
Columbus has sooo many large shopping malls and hosts the headquarters to some major mall based corporations. This has led to a lack of outlets to showcase and expose the public here to an alternative to mass produced products and to demonstrate the importance of supporting smaller indie artists, urban crafters, and designers. And where do you think some of these chain stores "get" their ideas for the 'next big trend' to sell in their stores?
The Fifth Annual Craftin' Outlaws will be held on October 17, 2009 from 11a-6pm at The Lodge Bar in the Arena District. CRAFTIN' OUTLAWS
