+ We are open to anyone — be it maker or buyer. We strive to provide a forum for Detroit-area handmade artists and craftsters and promote events related to them. In doing so, we are building a community around the many talented and creative artists and crafty-types in our fair city.

+ On August 4, 2007, we presented the second Detroit Urban Craft Fair. The fair showcased 60-plus vendors for a day of community building and DIY selling. The official web site has lots of info on DUCF.

My Interests

Anything and everything handmade: knitting, spinning, weaving, sewing, quilting, embroidery, cross-stitch, needlepoint, bookbinding, paper crafts, crochet, stencils, silk screen, jewelry making, bath and body, woodworking, metalsmithing, glass arts, candle making, pottery, sculture, painting, collage, textile design, basketweaving, a trusty glue gun and a good pair of scissors.

I'd like to meet:

Handmade sellers, makers and lovers. And the people who love them.

+ We are always looking for new collaborative projects and invitations to set up shop. Send us your ideas and offers!
