Follow on Google News | Austin Handmade Re-opening Party & Austin Fashion Week EventAustin Handmade is celebrating the Grand Re-opening of its new store location at 2009 S. First St. Combining launch efforts with this year’s Austin Fashion Week. Showcasing fashion show by local designer Robie Dodson of Parsimony.
Austin Handmade is the brainchild of forward thinking local art supporters Jason Butler and Catherine Jones. Butler, a native Texan and graduate from the Art Institute of Dallas also owns and operates Sixgunlover Records and Sonance Rehearsal Studios. His partner Catherine Jones, UT alumni and co-founder of Austin Handmade, helped to establish this business as her way of giving back to a community that has offered her so many possibilities. Austin Handmade began as an online store, marketed toward a national audience. Their idea was to have an inclusive array of arts to represent the diversity of talent in Austin. After receiving many requests from Austinites to create a local showroom, owners Catherine and Jason decided to open up shop. Austin Handmade’s mission is to provide an outlet for artists and to expand the notion of what art is, with a focus on affordable art. Visit the Austin Handmade online store at www.austinhandmade.com to find an array of Austin’s talent with a wide diversity of art including screen printing, book binding, candle making, fabric art, graphic design and more, including detailed information on upcoming featured monthly artist events and the bi-weekly local Handmade Market.
