The Second Annual DIY Factory Showcase in San Antonio - November 15th.
The DIY Factory is an annual celebration of creativity that brings together
a diverse group of cutting edge independent craftsters, artisans, designers,
and musicians to showcase their talents to the general public in a market
type setting. It gives many people their first opportunity at being
a vendor and allows those that are "old hands" at selling
their goods a fresh and new type of market to connect to the community.
The DIY Factory will showcase over 50 alternative arts and crafts vendors
epitomizing the Do-It-Yourself ethic. You won’t see your grandma’s
country crafts, painted bluebonnets or jams and jellies at our fair.
You will, however, see unique fashions and accessories, art dolls, handmade
house wares, jewelry, found object art, paintings, silk screened tees
and totes, knitted goods, and many other one-of-a-kind hand crafted
oddities.
The fashion show will feature a range of emerging to established local
designers from practical to fantastical. Established local musicians
from an assortment of genres will provide the musical entertainment,
as well. We will even provide materials and direction at a Make-n-Take
table for those of you that need to get your craft on!
The 2nd Annual DIY Factory will take place on November 15, 2008 at
La Plaza del Rey Ballroom, centrally located just North of Hildebrandt
