Have you ever wanted a permanent year round place to sell your wares every weekend? How about one place, where you could go, regardless of weather to pick up some exceptional handmade goodness? Well, if you are lucky enough to live near L.A., your wish will soon be reality. Crafted: at the Port of Los Angeles is a permanent craft business incubator, that will eventually house over 500 micro-businesses. This is a great opportunity to support the continued expansion of indie crafting into the retail marketplace. Vendors wishing to sell can learn more here. For those just wanting to check it out, the website is the best place to start for.
I for one hope that this venture is wildly successful and that more groups in other cities will look at similar business models.
