Finally Putting Orange County on the Indie Craft Map
Tall Mouse Arts, Crafts and Framing will be hosting its first ever Indie Crafting Month during the month of June 2009. Orange County’s premier craft organization, The Handmade Brigade, has established this month full of events to showcase Orange County’s flair for organic and unique creativity and to claim its place on the Indie Craft map.
The entire month will allow innovative non-conformists who are obsessed with inspiring, inventing and recycling to represent themselves in their purist form. Indie crafters know how to put a new spin on the average craft and have mastered the art of creating with a sense of humor. Partnered with Tall Mouse, The Handmade Brigade’s goal is to shine a light on the indie craft movement as a part of Orange County culture and to celebrate the local artists who proudly represent it. They are trying to achieve their goal by hosting the following events:
* June 6th: The HandMade Brigade Indie Craft Show- Cerritos, Ca
* Back by popular demand! Over 30 Indie Craft Vendors for your alternative shopping pleasure!
* June 13th: The Swap-o-Rama-Rama -Yorba Linda, ca
* Clean out your closets! You are invited to THE giant clothing swap and series of do-it-yourself workshops in which a community explores reuse and creativity through the recycling of used clothing. Swaporamarama.org
* June 20th: Indie Intensive- Laguna Niguel, Ca
* A series of workshops, make and takes and book signings by the most talented people of the indie craft persuasion!
* June 27th: The HandMade Brigade Indie Craft Show- Laguna Niguel, Ca
* One more time… Over 30 Indie Craft Vendors for your alternative shopping pleasure!
Attendees of Indie Craft Month can expect to find plenty of quality handmade goods, “rebellious” crafting workshops and a whole new way of looking at crafting!
