(D)rafts and (C)rafts, back for the second year, combines dozens of local craft beverage producers and artisan makers, including Khismet Wearable Art, in the District's first small-scale producers festival. On Saturday, July 13, 2024 from 12p-4p, join the DC Brewers’ Guild and the newly established DC Makers’ Guild for this indoor festival at Dock 5 in the Union Market District.

Why is this festival different from the rest? Your friends and neighbors are manufacturing the beverages you will drink and the goods you will purchase. The Brewers and Makers Guilds support small-scale manufacturers on the individual and collective level: they provide members the tools and structure for both individual growth and positive systemic change.

Grab unlimited tastes from 20 craft beverage producers while exploring products from 40 locally made artisan goods businesses such as ceramicists, woodworkers, printmakers, jewelers, and more. Stop by the craft station to express your creativity or visit the Guild info booth to learn about their work and how to get involved.

Both Guilds work to unify independent producers, raise awareness and appreciation of the quality and diversity of their industries, and influence public policy decisions to create a business environment that allows them to continue to grow and flourish. Funds raised from this festival will allow the work to continue.

Chefs from Union Market will serve throughout the event for festival- goers to purchase food and nonalcoholic beverages. (Food vendors to be announced soon).
