Felt Club Round 4: Now with Ice Cream!!
Big news, y'all!

Our next event happens August 12, and we're happy to announce that Felt Club will be participating in the YarisWorks road tour. If you haven't heard about it yet, YarisWorks is a cross-country DIY-themed roadtrip sponsored by Toyota, to promote their cute new fuel-efficient car the (duh) Yaris. They will be throwing 3 crafty how-to days in each city they visit. Their Los Angeles visit will culminate at Felt Club on August 12 and we are psyched!



The whole tour is organized in conjunction with the peeps at Venus magazine and BuyOlympia, who are all super folks. They will be helping us do even more promotion than usual for our crafty event, which will directly benefit our vendors and visitors—plus we get to add these two amazing attractions to the August event:

WORKSHOPS! Toyota is helping us pull off THREE hour-long craft classes inside Meltdown (where Felt Club is held) at various times throughout the day! So, visitors can learn to hand-spin yarn, do needle felting, etc. We are curating these classes ourselves and can’t wait to give you more details about them. The teachers are Jamie from Mary Jane's Attic and Silvia from Chebang!. We're so happy that Felt Club will now have a hands-on element we couldn’t previously offer. Fun, fun, fun!

COOL TREATS!
Our favorite thing about this whole development (cuz we're totally immature) is that YarisWorks is providing an on-site ice cream truck distributing free treats! The guys from West Coast Choppers (ie: that dude Jesse James) pimped out a Yaris and turned it into a working ice cream truck. How great is that?! Between the ice-cold water and pop at the Felt Club Bake Shoppe and the free ice cream courtesy Yaris, vendors and visitors alike should find it easy to stay cool in that accursed August sunshine.

More details later...hope to see you there!

PS: There will also be a Yaris on-site in case anyone wants to take one for a test-spin!
