This year, the event will host approximately150 indie crafters and artists from across the country.  Add great music, good food, free wi-fi, activities for kids, and you have “Strange Folk”, the Heartland’s largest outdoor indie art festival.  Family-friendly Strange Folk was voted “best craft festival in St. Louis” by the River Front Times.~ The River Front Times Street Team will be in attendance at this year’s festival.

Strange Folk has gained notability for its spunky counter-culture theme and eclectic variety of vendors selling clothing, accessories, jewelry, housewares, toys, art, and much more in affordable price ranges making it possible for anyone to afford one-of-a-kind handmade creations.  Notoriety has grown with national sponsorship.  Log on to www.strangefolkfestival.com to see a preview of vendor crafts.
