Crafty Wonderland | Dec 9-11 | Oregon Convention Center

Oh, wait, did you think 160 vendors was a lot? Wait until you see the layout of the incredible Crafty Wonderland holiday market event! Over 250 artists will be selling their goods at the Crafty Wonderland Holiday Art + Craft Market at Oregon Convention Center this year. It's a giant spread of vendors, but it's also a total blast. You'll find kids selling their crafts, custom artifacts, vintage goods, and just about everything you could dream up, with a very Portland quirk that you know and love (think Bigfoot on bicycles, gritty urban oracle card decks, cats and more cats, taxidermy mice in snowy ornaments, and so much more).
