The Baltimore Zine & DIY Fest @ 2640: Now accepting tabling registrations!

May 27, 2008

Ready for another round of do-it-yourself workshops? The Second Annual DIY Fest is back in Baltimore! On Saturday, June 14th head on over to 2640 to learn a new skill or to check out some of the best DIY crafters & zinesters that our fair Charm City has to offer! Never been to a DIY Fest? The Baltimore Zine & DIY Fest (Do It Yourself Festival) is an annual one day event featuring workshops of self-sufficient, low-budget strategies for making stuff and doing things. Why should learning important skills always revolve around your wallet??? DIY Fest is a free event!

AND, join us as a tabler!  Tables are just $5 for the whole day.  Red Emma's will be on hand with delicious coffee drinks & vegan baked goods courtesy of the Baltimore Baking Brigade - don't miss it, it should be a blast!  If you want to table, send an email to diyfest (at) gmail.com with your name, the name of your project, what you plan to sell/give away at your table, and anything else we should know; and let us know SOON, space is filling up!
