ABOUT

The Founders: Let us introduce ourselves! Liv Grant is a local designer of hand-dyed homegoods, clothing and accessories at liv + work. Once exclusively online, liv+work opened their first brick and mortar store in downtown Wichita in April 2017 and can be found in over 25 stores across America, and in Paris. Genny Werth is a designer of lush knitwear accessories, apparel and home accents at Swiss Pointe Designs. We met at an artisan market, hit it off and have been friends ever since! In the process of doing shows together, we met so many kick-ass makers. We love working and creating together, and so in 2015 we set out to produce top-knotch events for our fellow artists to increase exposure and sell their amazing high-end handmade goods to a very unique customer base! Genny has recently found being more present in her family life and in her own small biz to be very rewarding. You'll still see her hanging at each HH Market, though she has stepped away from an organizing role, she will always be one half of the spark that lit this awesome Haute Handmade firework!

Haute Handmade is not your average craft fair. At Haute Handmade we always strive to showcase original handmade art and designs that are different from most found in outdoor markets, or even in our region. Our shows feature unique makers and we always aim to be well diversified. You'll most definitely find new and modern handcrafted goods created from all kinds of materials you can only imagine. HH also loves fabulous vintage upcycles and one-of-a-kind art. We seek out artists that take the classic crafts and add a modern spin with abundant uniqueness + lots new "must haves" that we just can't get enough of!

In additon to teaming up with the best makers we know, Haute Handmade loves partnering with some of our fave ICT spots to hold our Pop Ups!  We've been to Norton’s Brewing, 86 Cold Press, The Monarch, Cowtown Museum, Eberly Farm, Bungalow 26, and Public at the Brickyard just to name a few!  Where will we pop up next?!?
