Make It is a retail show devoted to creating positive and lucrative opportunities for artists, crafters and designers. On the flip side, Make It is a shopping event that gives enlightened shoppers the opportunity to buy unique, ethically made goods from top artisans from all over Canada. The vibe at the show is funky, hip and modern…very different from you traditional granny craft show! Music is spun by top local DJs and there are always tasty treats to be enjoyed. Make It is about appreciating creativity, connecting entrepreneurs, and giving conscious shoppers an alternative to the mall.

The inspiration for Make It occurred when accessory designer Jenna Herbut (www.bootyflybags.com) found it hard to persuade friends to come visit her at traditional craft fairs. She understood that these types of events were not their cup of tea and felt that if the shows were more fun and exciting it would be way easier to get her peers to stop by. Jenna knew the importance of branding and positioning so she decided to give the typical craft show a much needed marketing makeover! Make It is affiliated with Stop & Shop Show (www.stopandshopshow.com) which occurs semiannually in Edmonton, AB.

Make It is a modern art, craft and fashion market for anyone who loves style, individuality and everything fabulous!
