Show

A one day experience in Chicago

MADE. A carefully curated experience showcasing handmade, tailor made, custom made, homemade, loft made, city made, kitchen made, well made, finely made, creatively made, uniquely made, precisely made, beautifully made, perfectly made, outrageously made, delicately made, in-your-face made, and deliciously made.

MADE. It’s about the passion Makers put into what they do…and the work they make.  

MADE. A different kind of show, featuring everything made by hand, by Makers and the work they love to make.  From art to food, clothing to lotions, stationary to furniture…MADE is the place to show it and sell it.

MADE. The newest, best, quirkiest, most exciting sampling of art, food, drinks, décor, accessories, and fashion.  

MADE.  A day for those in search of the next great thing to come see, taste, drink, try on, wear, enjoy, fall in love with, buy and own.  

MADE is 8 days before Christmas, and two weeks before New Years.

MADE provides Makers an 8 foot table to show and sell their best. Spaces are $250 per Maker.

To be in MADE send us four images of what you make, one of the images can be how you display your makings.
