West Coast Craft is well known for its massive art and craft fairs, and their summer event is this weekend at Fort Mason Center. The two-day fair will take over the Festival Pavilion on June 7 and 8, as over 275 vendors sell their handmade goods. 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. West Coast Craft regularly draws large crowds, with people eager to shop the vendors selling unique goods. The fair will open at 10 am and run until 6 pm, so you have plenty of time to explore all the booths. 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.
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 June 21.
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.
Don’t miss West Coast Craft at Fort Mason Center this weekend June 7 and 8 from 10 am to 6 pm.
