East Bay Express and Mini Marzipan Presents
Taste for Artisans Event
April 3, 2010: 5 - 11pm
Jack London Square

98 Broadway Avenue, Oakland.

(Inside the vacant Barnes & Noble building)
30,000 square feet of awesomeness!

Event Description:

Taste for Artisans pays tribute to Americana but with a modern, urban twist.

We celebrate local craftsmanship with over 100 of the Bay Area's best artisans selling their handmade wares, farmers filling our plates, live local bands/djs, and other educational activities from the De Young Museum.


EBX and Mini Marzipan have a reputation for throwing amazing parties, and this will be no exception. Our idea of urban Americana includes cream corn wrestling, mechanical bull riding, hay bales and picnic tables, pie eating contests, square dancing competitions, live craft making, old school games, and more!

Live music will have your feet moving through the Handmade Ho Down Village with style!

Meet local artisans, musicians, and farmers while at the same time supporting Drawbridge, a bay area local organization bringing art awareness to children in need.

Enjoy the Handmade Ho Down Village to your handcrafted hearts delight!


hope to see you there!
