Sunday was a perfect day to stroll over to Fort Mason for West Coast Craft. The weather was pleasant, the location was walkable distance and I had just finished up a latte date with a good, fellow artsy friend. Unlike the Renegade craft fair, West Coast Craft is more curated and requires an application process for all prospective designers, artists & craftspeople.

The turnout was exceptional; there were thousands packed into the pavilion on the show's last day. Some designers weren't prepared for the masses, expecting far less foot traffic. Needless to say, they were very happy about not having enough on-hand inventory. Some I recognized from One Kings Lane Artisanal events, others from the Renegade Craft Fair this past summer, but everyone was in good spirits and just excited to have a presence at the show.
