It's an old-fashioned town craft show...upcycled!

The Underground Artisans Marketplace, the first "alternative" arts and craft show to surface in State College, is a unique arts and craft venue for local artisans to showcase their creative endeavors to the community. UAM was initiated to reconnect the mindful buyer with the modern handmaker and to bring awareness to the ideas of "buying local" and "going green."

Artisans from the Centre Region will be selling handmade clothing, jewelry, and stylish home decor; original artwork, pottery, upcycled and repurposed vintage clothing and wares, graphic design, vinyl records, DIY and more!

FREE ADMISSION! Proceeds from the exhibitor's fees will benefit Schlow Library.

Please contact Kristen at thepastandpending7@gmail.com for more info.
