Now in it's third year, the Urban Arts Festival celebrates the combination of design and crafts as designers, artists and other creatives resurrect and reinvent more traditional crafts and hobbies.

Craft-ernoon
Heard of yarn-bombing? How about guerrilla gardening? Craft nights and 'stitch n bitch' events have been popping up about the city. Creatives of all kinds are twisting the idea of urban art from paper toy designers and fiber artists to illustrators and designers. Join them at the Spui, in front of the ABC as they create work on-site, sell their wares, sharing ideas and generally getting creative.

Workshops at the ABC Treehouse
At the ABC Treehouse, workshops will offer free hands on classes and create discussions between artists, publishers and other industry folk about design, crafts and illustrations.

Artists attending
Artists attending the festival include Machine, Pia Jane Bijkerk, Fake, Straat Papier Holland Klik, The Ladies Fancywork Society among others, including you. Come along and join in the fun.
