San Francisco Bazaar began in 2001 in the Boston-area as a group of friends cobbling together their handcrafted DIY wares to sell and stage an offbeat entertainment extravaganza. In 2004 the San Francisco Bazaar spread to Los Angeles and Cleveland. In 2006 Make Magazine took them under their wing as part of the Maker Faire Bay Area and Austin, Texas. The Bazaars in Boston, Cleveland and San Francisco happen every year during peak holiday shopping season. Each event draws thousands of shoppers and workshop attendees.
