So, I just recieved the acceptance letter to be a vendor at the upcoming Renegade LA!
This will be the first time Sophie's Threads has been a vendor here. Very exciting stuff.
The 2nd Annual Renegade Craft Fair Holiday Market in Los Angeles returns to Los Angeles State Park on December 10 + 11, from 10am – 5pm, to supply all your handmade holiday shopping needs! Always free-to-attend and featuring over 200 artists, shoppers are sure to find something for everybody on their lists or can craft a special gift themselves at one of our terrific hands-on crafting workshops! A handful of LA’s best independent food trucks will be on site serving up delicious dishes and our bar will have many holiday libations!
At the Renegade Craft Fair you can expect to find only the best indie-craft and DIY artisans! Featuring both local and national talent, shoppers can anticipate a vast array of independently designed jewelry, clothing, paper goods, home + garden goods, posters, artwork, plush objects, bath + body products, and so much more!!
What is the Renegade Craft Fair?
The Renegade Craft Fair (RCF) is a large-scale and free-to-attend marketplace event! Featuring hundreds of artists at a time, vendors travel from all over to sell and showcase their handmade goods and original artwork. RCF is held yearly in urban epicenters of creative indie-entrepreneurship – including Brooklyn, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Austin, and London (UK).
What makes RCF unique?
The Renegade Craft Fair differs from traditional arts and craft fairs by focusing on DIY and indie-craft culture. Each individual fair is juried from hundreds of applications to purposefully feature a curated, eclectic array of young and emergent designers producing original and handmade goods in a wide variety of media. We feature artists with a DIY (do-it-yourself) background – creating innovative work using traditional craft methods, but not based on preexisting patterns or products. Each event features paper goods, housewares, ceramics, bath products, jewelry, craft kits, accessories, clothing, comics, plush objects, knits, curios, collectibles, artwork, and so much more!
What kinds of things does Renegade have to offer?
All of our Fairs are juried separately and each fair features a unique line-up of artists. While we have some returning vendors and some artists who travel to participate in each and every event, we always welcome new applicants! RCF draws thousands upon thousands of attendees – shoppers, arts and crafts enthusiasts, media scouts, bloggers and tastemakers all make a point of turning out to see what’s new and to stock up on unique artist created goods.
Additionally, each fair offers special features! Past goings-on have included numerous hands-on craft workshops, marching bands, live music, public art performances and projects, DJs from indie music outlets, photo-ops, non-profit participants, photo booths, and raffles!
We seek Sponsorships and Partnerships with craft related industries in order to fund and equip these special features, particularly our educational and free-to-participate workshops! Past workshops have included silk screening, sewing, paper maché, circuit bending, felting, porcelain painting, ornament-making and so much more!
Renegade also often offers food, beverages and libations from choice local eateries, food trucks and small independent kitchens!
