Craft Lake City Craft Lake City is an annual outdoor alternative arts festival in Salt Lake City, UT. Craft Lake City is modeled after national and international craft festivals like the Renegade Craft Fair and Bizarre Bazaar, featuring affordably-priced items like silk-screened posters, reconstructed clothing, knitted items, jewelry and other Do It Yourself (DIY) crafts along with live entertainment that includes craft demonstrations, street performers and musical acts and local food vendors. Free to attend, the next Craft Lake City will be held on August 13, 2011 at the Gallivan Center in Salt Lake. [1] == History & Concept ==

Craft Lake City was started in 2009 by Angela H. Brown, editor and publisher of SLUG (SaltLakeUnderGround) Magazine as a way to showcase the local DIY culture. Brown was inspired by craft festivals in larger cities and thought a similar event would fit perfectly with Utah’s crafting history and background. [2]
