ARTvsCRAFT (Event Over)

I know, weep, it's in Milkwaukee. But Milwaukee is awesome, and so is this weekend alterna-craft fair, featuring awesome hand-made independent goods from local-ish artists -- 40 percent of ARTvsCRAFT's retailers hail from unknown locations like, say, Chicago.

Also, there will be live music, food, drinks, and good times. If you have been looking for a good reason to explore the unknown north, this is it. It is worth every minute of the 70-minute drive.
