Shannon Okey is one of my favorite bloggers – and I actually should amend that to say that she is one of my favorite people that I’ve met through blogging, though I haven’t seen her lately. But she is a treasure and one of her big, fun projects is Bazaar Bizarre. This is the third year I’ve known about the event and I haven’t made it – yet. But I swear – I am going to work hard to make it this year.
Here’s some info about it, hattip to Brewed Fresh Daily:
Mark your calendars now — the fourth annual Bazaar Bizarre Cleveland is taking place in downtown Cleveland on Saturday, December 1st from noon to 9:00 p.m. This year we’re in a new venue, the Sincere Building, right near Lola, the Corner Alley and all kinds of downtown fun. (Disclosure: I’m a show organizer)
Bazaar Bizarre, which began in Boston almost seven years ago, is a hip, fun indie craft fair that now takes place in Boston, Los Angeles, Cleveland, and San Francisco each year. The vendor application for Cleveland is now online.
Featuring everything from handmade jewelry and clothing to art and toys, it’s a great one-stop non-mall holiday shopping experience and a way to support small local businesses. We’re also soliciting performers — in years past we’ve had belly dancers, DJs and more — if you’re interested, email cleveland_info@bazaarbizarre.org!
In addition, BazBiz will be the first Pop Up City event in Cleveland. Pop Up City is a series of temporary events in vacant places. Civic Innovation Lab funds will be used to develop, implement, and promote these events. Some events (i.e. temporary restaurants and shops) will generate revenue, although they will require an initial investment to get started. Others are not income-producing; these events will be supported with Civic Innovation Lab funds, neighborhood partnerships, and other funding sources.
In a nutshell:
Bazaar Bizarre Cleveland 2007
Saturday, December 1 — noon to 9:00 p.m.
Corner of East Fourth and Prospect (2079 East Fourth), Cleveland

Awww! Thanks, Jill! I certainly hope to see you there this year, that’s for sure! I think the location is going to add a lot to what is already a fantastically fun event!
You bet, Shannon. I am going to TRY TRY TRY.
