After living in Austin and visiting art shows, vintage shops, City Wide Garage Sale, food trailers, and countless fun venues it occurred to us - wouldn't it be cool if you could do ALL of that in one place?

There.  The concept for the Flea was born.  Well, there may have been several visits to the amazing Brooklyn Flea over the past couple of years that contributed, too.  We figured that if Brooklyn could do it, so could we.

We may not always have all of those aspects at every Flea, but there will be some combo of the above mentioned.  It's really very Austin in a nutshell - casual, creative, and fun.  That's what we're all looking for, right?

The Austin Flea has been featuring local, handmade, and vintage vendors in Austin since 2009, and even lived in a few iterations a few years before that.  We've been fortunate to have had some of the most amazing talent be part of the Flea.

The Second Annual DIY Factory Showcase in San Antonio - November 15th.
The DIY Factory is an annual celebration of creativity that brings together a diverse group of cutting edge independent craftsters, artisans, designers, and musicians to showcase their talents to the general public in a market type setting. It gives many people their first opportunity at being a vendor and allows those that are "old hands" at selling their goods a fresh and new type of market to connect to the community.

The DIY Factory will showcase over 50 alternative arts and crafts vendors epitomizing the Do-It-Yourself ethic. You won’t see your grandma’s country crafts, painted bluebonnets or jams and jellies at our fair. You will, however, see unique fashions and accessories, art dolls, handmade house wares, jewelry, found object art, paintings, silk screened tees and totes, knitted goods, and many other one-of-a-kind hand crafted oddities.

The fashion show will feature a range of emerging to established local designers from practical to fantastical. Established local musicians from an assortment of genres will provide the musical entertainment, as well. We will even provide materials and direction at a Make-n-Take table for those of you that need to get your craft on!

The 2nd Annual DIY Factory will take place on November 15, 2008 at La Plaza del Rey Ballroom, centrally located just North of Hildebrandt on Fredericksburg.
