Greetings! Tomorrow at the Omni Commons, we'll be hosting our first of a potentially bi-monthly pop-up bazaar featuring local artists, artisans and craftmakers. Stop by anytime between 12-8pm and peruse a phantasmagorical cornucopia of objects and imbibements to titillate the tongue, warm the belly, inspire the mind and adorn the body! The mission of these Collabazaars is to create a sustainable model for fundraising for the Omni's monthly expenses while simultaneously providing local makers in our community with income and visibility to support their continued creative / artistic / crafty / culinary endeavors. As the sun sets both tonight and tomorrow, the Omni will metamorphize into a haunted house befitting of its creepy cavernous and labrynthian corners! Collaborators: * Francisco Jimenez, Tucan Vinegars: Selling delicious homemade Costa Rican-style vinegars. Free tastings available! * Abby Normal Art by Antoinette Gaggero * Liberation Food Coop: Fair trade, fresh-roasted coffee and a variety of teas to sample. * Youth Liberation Zines by STINNEY DISTRO * Live painting by Nikki Lee Drum (http://www.nikkileedrum.com/ <http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nikkileedrum.com%2F&h=OAQF_W64X&enc=AZNKj52vBoEYcLl0STmITcESO7T8EpunqbEKlF0ZxGhm8NSjAoEdVjtfj9_pMTJqiQA&s=1> ) * Musical mosaics: Hand-crafted instruments that can be played and used as unique art pieces. * Kangs' Necklaces: Wire Wrapped Gems & Stones * BerrytheMaker selling her household overstock of accumulated treasures, cheap! * Sudo Room's 3D printers will be printing out original magnet designs throughout the day \o/ If you're interested in running a booth (with a percentage of sales going to the Omni Commons) at future Collabazaars, please contact collabazaar(a)omnicommons.org Facebook Event: https://omnicommons.org/collabazaar With love, Collaborators of the Omni Oakland Commons 4799 Shattuck Ave, Oakland *Our monthly expenses are on the order of $18K/month.
