We’re on the hunt for vendors of handmade goods — clothing, accessories, visual art, home furnishings, you get the idea — to sell their work at the big event.
When news happens, Phoenix New Times is there —
Your support strengthens our coverage.
We’re aiming to raise $30,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to you. If New Times matters to you, please take action and contribute today, so when news happens, our reporters can be there.
Artopia will take over Monarch Theatre from 7 to 11 p.m. in downtown Phoenix and will feature a Craft Village where handmade will go far beyond your grandma’s cross-stitch projects. If you’re interested, check out the Big Brains page and fill out the questionnaire to submit your work for consideration.
