Hamilton Artists Inc. is pleased to announce its second ever Quirky AF | art fair, a curated pop-up art, craft and design market that hosts talented and avant-garde makers. Hamilton Artists Inc. aims to be a destination for critical, unconventional, and challenging contemporary art practices that contribute to regional and national discourses. As such, the aim of this event is to bring together crafters and designers from across the region, who challenge expectations and take risks with work that is unconventional, experimental, political, or all-around weird and quirky.
Quirky AF | art fair will feature the very weirdest in jewellery, paper/ prints, ceramics, toys, clothing, accessories, housewares and apothecaries from artisans from Hamilton and the surrounding regions. Located at Hamilton Artists Inc. at the corner of James and Cannon, Quirky AF | art fair will be open to the public during the Art Crawl weekend.
How this event is different than Craft Mart?
