Our event was another success!
We felt so much support from friends, family, and guests at our new location. Community offered a beautiful setting for shopping, mingling and relaxing! We hope all of you return each month.
Along with our event, our new retail store, A Little Known Shop, opened it’s doors for a sneak peek of it’s space. A Little Known Shop will be offering space for handmade and original art to be sold. The shop will be having the Grand Opening on May 31, 2013 from 6-10pm. Next to the shop is The Makery, a wonderful art studio offering workshops, projects for guests that drop in, rental space for events and more! Join us for the free grand opening to enjoy shopping local handmade merch and original art, listen to live music, eat amazing tamales, play the raffle, get a face/body painting and caricatures.
RSVP for the the special night here: A LITTLE KNOWN SHOP GRAND OPENING
Our craft events will be held in front of the new store and neighboring shops inside of Community.
This month we had our fun festivities including: Caricatures, a photobooth, raffle, and a make and take table.
The free craft project this month was paper flower making which could be attached to cards and tags.
As always, we try to have an amazing food truck. This month we had the oh so yummy Viking Food Truck.

Recycled fabric was used to make our fun photobooth and by the look on this pups face, it was a blast!
We are known for our exciting raffles with great handmade prizes and more, and this month we put a twist on it: BINGO RAFFLE!
One of our guests below was the final winner of the night and went home with an original painting. Several other winners took home handmade items such as greeting cards, prints, jewelry, baked goods and more.
Some of our vendors were from previous shows, but we also had merchandise by new vendors.
