Thank you to everyone who braved the rain and came out to our Gothic Garden Market yesterday. Almost 750 of you (our second largest turnout ever) came through the doors and bought all the things. You made a whole lot of amazing talented artists and artisans incredibly happy.
Thanks to those same artists and artisans who do so much incredible work and devote so much time to creating the coolest stuff. The very best part of my day is seeing your joyful faces as you leave with way less stuff to take home than you came with.
Thanks, as always to everyone at Ground Control, who give us the coolest and most welcoming place to host our market. You take such good care of us and we love working with you.
