Hello crafty friends! We hope you all had a wonderful
Holiday Season that was full of crafty fun! Now that our Mafia Members have had a little break after a busy craft show season, it’s time to get this new year started!
So, what’s in store for 2014 you ask? Plenty! We’ll be
starting the year with our first "Crafty Conspiracy Craft Night" on January 21
st from 7pm to 9 pm, location TBA. We welcome all crafty types who
want to get together for some social crafting time. Just bring something to work on that’s easy to transport. Craft Nights will continue throughout the year
on the 4
th Tuesday every month. This is a free event. Let us know you are coming by sending an RSVP to:
craftnight@sandiegonorthparkcraftmafia.com
In May we will host our first craft show for this year - the "Spring
Line Up" at the
North Park Festival of Arts. We are proud to be bringing our own
group of vendors to this event for the 6
th year in a row! For those who
haven't attended this event, the NPFA is an annual street fair in North Park . Unlike other street fairs, this one is completely dedicated to
promoting the arts. You won’t find vendor booths selling aluminum siding! What
you will find are many local artists and crafters, performance artists, live
musical entertainment, hands-on art booths, and much more! Plus, it’s family-friendly and free to attend! For our contribution to this event we will be
hosting a special vendor section dedicated to the handcrafted arts. We always
have a diverse group of crafts represented and it’s a lot of fun. Visitors can hang out at the Mafia's "Craft Lounge" where we will have “make-and-take” crafting sessions of various
crafting techniques. You won’t want to miss this show! Interested vendors
should sign up for our
Monthly Newsletter.
At the end of the year we'll be hosting our 8th Annual "Holiday Hit List" shopping event. We'll have a lot more info about that later on as well as news about other events we have in the works. Be sure to keep up on the latest Mafia news by getting our newsletter and following us on
Facebook. We hope to see you soon!
