Bazaar Bizarre began in 2001 in the Boston-area as a hodge-podge of friends and acquaintances cobbling together their handcrafted DIY wares to sell and staging an offbeat entertainment extravaganza. In 2004 the Bazaar Bizarre spread to Los Angeles and Cleveland and in 2006 Make took us under their wing to include the Bazaar Bizarre as part of the Maker Faire in the San Francisco-area every spring. The Bazaars in Boston, Cleveland, Los Angeles and San Francisco happen every year during peak holiday shopping season in December.

This year's Bazaar Bizarre San Francisco will feature approximately 85 indie designers from across the country. A DJ will provide additional entertainment and food from local shops and bakeries will be available. The event will also serve as a networking opportunity for indie designers and businesses from the Bay Area and the US. Past Baz Biz Bay Area vendors have included My Paper Crane; Craftster; My Favorite Mirror; the individual members of the San Francisco Craft Mafia; the New Orleans and Sacramento Craft Mafias; and Fred Flare.

Bazaar Bizarre San Francisco's sponsorship plan has a variety of levels to fit your budget and needs. Bazaar Bizarre San Francisco has contacted your company regarding sponsorship because we are committed to forming a lasting partnership with your company and to further develop the community of craft-related and indie businesses in the San Francisco area.
