Grab your wallets and get ready for LA's biggest shopping extravaganza and the nation's largest independent design and gift show, Unique Los Angeles. The Second Annual Spring Show returns to Downtown LA bigger and better than the last, showcasing well over 300 independent artists and designers from across America. Although some vendors are from out of state, in the spirit of this great city, 90% of the vendors are from right here in LA. Giving back to the community has never been so stylish.

For two days, April 24th to April 25th, Unique LA is taking over with an expected attendance of 15,000+ local Angelenos ready to shop. Not only will you enjoy racking up on amazing deals directly from the artist/designer, no middle man necessary, but you will also be treated to live music, a lounge, gourmet food trucks and much more. Did I mention the highly anticipated DIY workshops led by expert contributors from HGTV, Dwell magazine and our very own LA Times? Plus eco-shopping and an interactive Snap! Photo Booth! Two days might not be enough to see it all.


Here's a sneak peek at some of the vendors showcasing this Spring:

*Astali
*Eva Franco
*Domestic Doll
*Graf & Lantz

*Kelly Hart

*LoomLab

*POP Candy

*Rock Socks


Plus many, many more! For a complete list visit Unique LA Participants. So come out, put those negotiation skills to work and support the local economy in the process. Remember to arrive early and get your tickets online for $10, the lines get very long and since the market's only open from 11 am to 6 pm, you don't want to get stuck waiting in line for 3 hours.
