word on the street is they’re worth checking out
Not only do our events showcase original creativity from amazing local artists but they are also family friendly and FREE to attend. Our past show brought in 300+ shoppers and with the ever growing fan interaction on our website and facebook page we are expecting that number to be even higher come our Spring 2012 event.
As always the Spring ‘12 event will host the area’s top indie artists and crafters selling high quality, affordable products. Local music is an enticing perk for attendees as live acoustic acts and live DJs provide a pleasantly hip atmosphere for our shoppers.
To become even more of an inspiring contribution to the Quad Cities community we are currently working with local charities and sponsors to partnership with. It is our youthful enthusiasm that believes art opens doors to amazing possibilities and we’re ready to push those doors open!
We are always looking for new artists and venues! If you are interested in becoming a part of our community to sell, support, or give ideas, please email us at: handmadecityinfo@gmail.com
