Currently in it’s 8th year, The Renegade Craft Fair began in Chicago’s Wicker Park and quickly drew the attention of indie-craft makers + enthusiasts from all over the nation. The event now draws tens-of-thousands of shoppers and occurs in 5 cities annually from coast to coast; Chicago (IL), Brooklyn (NY), San Francisco (CA), Los Angeles (CA), and, beginning in 2010, Austin (TX).
All Renegade Craft Fair events are organized from Chicago, out of a small storefront opened by Fair organizers in 2007 dedicated to selling handmade merchandise called Renegade Handmade.
