In 2003, seventy-five craftspeople gathered in Chicago’s Wicker Park neighborhood to present their handmade goods, including jewelry, posters, clothing and stationery in the first Renegade Craft Fair. Now, the event is held every summer in Chicago, Brooklyn, Los Angeles & San Francisco. Each city’s fair draws hundreds of artisans from across the nation and some from around the globe. Just in case you’re not able to make it out to one of the fairs (the summer tour ends September 12 in Chicago), we’ve got exclusive interviews, how-to guides, advice and photos from DIY craftspersons of this year’s Renegade Craft Fairs. Stay tuned for all the exclusives!
