Echo Park Craft Fair

The Echo Park Craft Fair was founded nearly a decade ago by friends Beatrice Valenzuela and Rachel Craven, working artists and mothers, seeking to create a space to connect with their local creative community.

As the Fair has evolved, alongside what is now a global Makers Movement, the core values and intentions have remained the same – to provide a vibrant gathering place for a circle of artists to commune, share and inspire. The goal of these bi-annual celebrations is nothing less than a shared catharsis, a moment where talented creatives are not only able showcase amazing new work, but also to motivate, encourage and care for one another.

The world has changed greatly since Valenzuela and Craven’s idea was first born ten years ago. More than ever, there is a desire for art, beauty and most of all, community.

Now hosting thousands of visitors and featuring artists from around the globe, The Echo Park Craft Fair remains a one-of-a-kind movement for us to unite in positivity, support and celebration.
