Indie South in the summer

Indie South Fair is branching out into mini-events that will take place throughout the year. We want to give artists a chance to market their wares year round, not just during peak sales seasons. These events will be smaller-scale, which means less work for us and more affordable for artists!

Meet Indie South Artist - Kenneth Kase

My background is in sculpture and jewelry.  Currently I am working in mostly brass and some sterling silver. I bring these metals together with Czech glass beads.  Often the beads are antique uncirculated along with new and some vintage.  I like to play with line and color and see how things come together.  Currently I have have work in stores in Georgia and New York.

Each piece is designed and produced by me.  I make small runs of each design so each time I start a new run the colors may change.  So each time you see my work there will be some thing new and fresh to see.

Indie South year 'round!

Indie South Fair is branching out into mini-events that will take place throughout the year. We want to give artists a chance to market their wares year round, not just during peak sales seasons. These events will be smaller-scale, which means less work for us and more affordable for artists!  

Our first such happening was this past Valentine's Day at Little Kings Shuffle Club. We teamed up with the annual Zombie Prom to bring you a day of pampering, shopping, and more followed by the Zombie Prom. Cranking up at 9pm, the creatures of the night took over, with performances by Monsoon, The Humms, and The De Lux Interiors and an undead costume dance party!  

At the Handmade Lovers~A Valentine's Affair we had local artists offering handmade gifts including cards and sweets, a caricature artist to render your likeness, tarot readings from Autumn Weaver to engage your intuition and cultivate your genius, plus services from the stylists at Honey's Salon and the make up professionals at M.A.C.  We had a great time and are sure to do it again next Valentine's Day. 

 Stay tuned for other such events in the Summer and Fall.

Meet Indie South Artist - Nail Butter

Christina Cole lives on a farm with more animals than she can count on her hands and feet, but she knows exactly what to wear and how to look around people in nearby nightlife hub Athens, Georgia (where she never orders a 'rusty nail'). Her firm beliefs in sustainability and a small ecological footprint are the reason Nail Butter© packages with recyclable containers and prints with eco-friendly inks, all locally. Christina is currently working on bringing fans of Nail Butter© a fabulous hair serum and a kaolin face mask, both measuring up to her standards for a beautiful planet.
