West Coast Craft is well known for its massive art and craft fairs, but now they are hosting a vintage-only fair on April 12, 2025. The fair, called Waves, will include vintage items such as clothes, furniture, and more. The market has over 120 vendors, including some that rework vintage materials to create their products. You can shop the upcoming fair next weekend on Sunday, April 12, indoors at the Fort Mason Center’s Gateway Pavilion.
West Coast Craft is the ultimate celebration of artisans specializing in the West Coast lifestyle and aesthetics. You can find everything from ceramics, clothes, artwork, candles, jewelry, and more at the fair. Fort Mason Center is wheelchair accessible with accessible parking spaces, and the event is on ground level. There are also plenty of food vendors and coffee shops around the area if you want to grab a bite while you shop. The fair is known for massive 2-day events with over 275 vendors, as well as smaller outdoor markets occasionally.
This year, they are adding an additional market to look forward to every month. After a successful holiday night market in 2024, local vendors from WCC will come together for a lively night market on Friday nights, along with SF’s beloved Off the Grid food trucks. The next night market is scheduled for April 18.
Make sure you leave some time to explore Fort Mason Center, which has several free exhibitions as well as delicious restaurants. Some of our favorite places to grab a bite are Radhaus, a German/Californian beer hall located in an old U.S. Army machine shop; and Greens, a delicious vegetarian restaurant with stunning interiors and waterfront views. Grab a coffee or cocktail at The Interval at Long Now, which also happens to be a floor-to-ceiling library dedicated to rebuilding civilization.
