The Strawberry Swing Indie Craft Fair Information

Established in 2011, The Strawberry Swing is The Midwest’s celebration of the handmade movement, striving to showcase the highest quality goods in an inclusive and accessible environment. Entrepreneurship and community thrive in our ecosystem. Our network of markets and pop-ups allows communities to gather and share in local culture, provides a platform for entrepreneurial growth, and provides consumers with an active role in affecting their local economy and landscape.Recently, we launched Shop Local KC which is a curated online marketplace with over 300 local, diverse Kansas City artisans and opened our flagship store at 3630 Main Street on June 25th.The Swing has become a Kansas City tradition, with festivals every weekend at historical Kansas City spaces like The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Union Station, The Alexander Majors Grounds, The Wornall Home, Powell Gardens, The WWI Museum (formerly Liberty Memorial) Union Station, and many more in Missouri & Kansas. This highly curated experience includes inspired handmade and vintage vendors, innovative food trucks, local live music, kids’ crafts and was recently featured as one of the Top 35 Indie Craft Fairs in the World. Our juried makers specialize in ceramics, clothing, printing, painting, photography, woodworking, leatherworking, metalsmithing, fiber arts, and so much more!
