Got Craft? Holiday 2012 Look Book

Got Craft?

Holiday Edition A Curated Collection

About Us We are Andrea and Robert, a husband and wife event management and wedding coordination team based in Vancouver (BC), that share a love for handmade craft.

Started in 2007, Got Craft? is celebrating its 12th show in Vancouver this December and we hope you will join us! Not since our very first show have we been able to offer a multi-day event and we are super excited to bring Got Craft? to the Croatian Cultural Centre with more DIY workshops, more vendors, and a few other surprises that we will be announcing in the

coming weeks!

As designers ourselves, we wanted to curate a boutique event to showcase some of our favourite handmade artists and provide Vancouver the opportunity to shop for one of a kind goods in a casual environment. Attendees are able to meet the makers in person to talk about their handmade goods and creative processes, as well as craft their own take home DIY projects!

Got Craft? aims to bring together a community that

fosters handmade and DIY culture by supporting likeminded events such as DIY @ Museum of Vancouver, the Austin (TX) and Vancouver (BC) Premiere of Handmade Nation, Swap-ORama-Rama 2009 and 2010, Vancouver Mini Maker Faire, the Sweetie Pie Press 2011 Summer Craft Tour, and Got Craft? London (UK) 2011.

Event Info When: Saturday, December 8th & Sunday, December 9th, 2012 10:00 am to 5:00 pm Where: Croatian Cultural Centre: 3250 Commercial Drive, Vancouver

Cost: $3.00 at the door (kids under 10 are free) For more information: http://gotcraft.com | info@gotcraft.com
