The Holiday rendition of the Renegade Craft Fair is almost here! And I am poised to rock things out in what has become a yearly tradition of crafting, shopping, and crowd control!

The event will be taking place at the Pulaski Park Fieldhouse, just North of Division on Blackhawk from 11am-6pm both days. I will be there in full force sharing my cozy booth (#56!) with the lovely Caitlin Peters of Wanderlustings.

Here’s what this year’s event has in store:

“At the Fair, attendees can get in the holiday spirit by making their own craft at an interactive workshop! The Chicago Zine Fest will be on hand with a zine-making workshop!

Not to be missed is Renegade’s own DIY Gift Wrap Workshop, where shoppers can choose from a variety of handmade paper, ribbons, and decoration to wrap their newly purchased gifts.

Visitors can capture a sweet, surly, or goofy holiday portrait with the free photobooth from Magnolia Photobooth Co.

Local music  gurus from Reckless Records, CHIRP Radio, and Dusty Groove will provide a shopping and crafting soundtrack (with the occasional holiday favorite thrown in) all weekend.

Shoppers can purchase food from local eateries MANA Food Bar, and Flying Saucer. Sweet treats will be available for purchase from local favorites Black Dog Gelato, Puffs of Doom, and Cheap Tart Bakery, and shoppers can get their caffeine fix from Dark Matter Coffee. Stay tuned for more local food vendors!

Parking is a bit tricky around the Pulaski Park Fieldhouse, so we’re offering a free-to-ride Renegade Holiday Trolley, which will travel to and from the Fair and make several stops along the Do-Division Holiday Walk and Unwrapped WPB Holiday Passport program, also occurring that weekend.
