One thing Alabama is not short on, is creative souls. Southern Makers was the first weekend of May and brought in a slew of chefs, artists, brewers, musicians and designers from across the southeast, majority being from Alabama. Proceeds from the event went to E.A.T. South, a really cool local charity which uses urban farms to promote principles of food justice through education and sustainable farming.
A few favorite artists included:
The Union Station Train Shed
Deborah Strawn Glass
Anthony Travis Folk Art
Belle Adair from Florence- favorite band of the day
Other notable businesses and artists:
Gabe Pedals (awesome hand built speakers)
The Hummus People
Okay, so I have to go with you next time! This sounds and looks like so much fun!!!
