This weekend, hot on the heels of their glorious Sound Garden event for Fusebox Festival, the team at Future Front Texas bring their Front Market spring showcase to the heart of our burgeoning metropolis.
Featuring more than 160 emerging women and LGBTQ+ creatives and small business owners from across the Lone Star State, all-day DJs, and a curated selection of installations, performances, workshops, this two-day event brings a diversity of artists, chefs, makers, designers, and illustrators — Corrie Pocta Ceramics (Dallas), Thai Fresh (Austin), Peach’d Jewelry (Austin), Cochinita & Co. Tamales (Houston), The Black Daisy (Waco), BoneOut BBQ (Austin), and, wow, so many more great homespun craftspeople.
We did say "more than 160," right? Oh, you’ll eat, you’ll drink, you’ll shop, shop, shop – and all in support of Texas creatives and small business owners.
Future Front (formerly known as Boss Babes ATX, btw) will present Front Market on Sat. & Sun., April 23 & 24, 11am-5pm at Distribution Hall (1500 E. Fourth).
