Concord’s Arty Farty flea market brings a trove of arts and craft supplies

CONCORD, CA (5/2/2021) — Concord Art Association is having their First Annual Arty Farty Sale at the aRt Cottage in downtown Concord on Saturday, May 8  (12-4pm).

Local artists will fill patio tables with all sorts of “arty farty” stuff for sale. This includes art supplies, craft and maker supplies, DIY items for repurposing and more. Everything priced to move.

This flea market fundraiser will benefit CAA’s community outreach* programs.

Artists are sure to find some amazing bargains here. Plus you can visit the gallery to see the latest show from members of Lamorinda Arts Alliance. Two great reasons to come to Concord. In addition, all of our wonderful downtown restaurants and public utility box art. Come for the art, stay for the day.

Artists are welcome to bring along a few new or gently-used art supplies to donate to CAA’s sale. It feels really good to clean out the studio and get some of those art supplies into new hands who will enjoy them.
