CRAFT 2.0 Winter Warmup | Saturday 24 October 2009, 11am – 3pm | FREE ENTRY

Supported by Hutt City Creative Communities, anco print, World Sweet World, felt.co.nz, Cafe Reka, NZLive, TEZA, CraftRunner, and Phantom

It’s time for the Craft 2.0 Spring Surprise. Whether you want fully-formed hand-crafted gifts and homeware, or the supplies and advice to make ‘em yourself, all your craft essentials are available under one roof when the most popular craft fair in town hits the Hutt at TheNewDowse on Saturday 24 October.

Join New Zealand's homebased handmade revolution and shop local. Why? It helps the environment by reducing your carbon footprint, and it keeps your hard-earned money in the community.

Craft2.0 is not just about shopping – visitors can learn the tools of the trade in two free make-and-do areas. Kids and adults – craft your heart out producing custom face masks. You'll walk away with a feather face mask to party up your day.

The other hands-on DIY area is the knitting lounge, where members of Outdoor Knit will spend the day knitting up a storm. These seasoned needle fiends will be sharing their addiction - if you feel like giving knitting a go, this is your chance to get hooked.

The first 100 people through the door receive a FREE CraftRunner gift bag stuffed full of goodies from our vendors and sponsors. These bags are a hot ticket so make sure you arrive by 1zam to score yourself some free swag! Inside you’ll find Teza tea, Cafe Reka fudge, a surprise from felt.co.nz and bonus treats from supporters and stallholders.

The Craft 2.0 Spring Surprise prize pool is also bigger than ever - everyone can enter the draw to win two boxes of crafty creations. So bring cards, cash and creative juices in preparation for a day-long crafting party.
