Craftcation
I just got this info from Nicole of Patchwork. “I’m shouting out to all my crafty people about my new event Craftcation: Indie Business & DIY Conference that I’m producing in Ventura, California on March 22-25, 2012. I was hoping you would want to help spread the word to other Oceanside Craft Mafia members and to your crafty friends and fans. We’re relying on grass roots style PR for our event and I’m seeking out other creatives to help spread the word and I know that many creatives and aspiring small business owners look to the mafia and you for inspiration. Craftcation is a three-day indie business & DIY conference featuring panel discussions and DIY workshops with leading industry professionals on art, craft and food-centered small business. Craftcation features more than 50 workshops, panels, lectures and events like
crash course sewing, embroidery 101, recycled sweater cuffs, bookbinding, terrariums, screenprinting, jam & preserve making, cheese 101, quick meals for busy workdays, how to get your crafty ideas published, 10 years of DIY, marketing on a budget, how to start a food or craft business, next level blogging, retail vs. wholesale over three days led by over 30 presenters like Jenny Hart, Kathy Cano-Murillo, Cathy Callahan, Christine Haynes, Lauren Venell, Nicole Vasbinder, Aida Mollenkamp, Evan Klieman, Rena Tom and The Urban Craft Center.”
