I got to spend a lunch break with Adrien Lucas the creator of Sarasota's original Indie Craft Show- Atomic Holiday Bazaar- a two-day holiday market that is an edgier, eccentric, quirky type of arts and craft show with over 180 Misfit Makers/vendors.
Adrien spoke about why she decided to start Atomic and how it started and has grown in the past 16 years. She shared what she is looking for and the trends she has seen through the years.
Adrien spoke about how she advertises and the community she has created from her events. Many of whom I have met because of her events.
Adrien shared all the different businesses she does (links below) as well as, her plans for Atomic in the Future.
I wanted to share this because if you are in the area - it really is an amazing place to shop for unique and just fun gifts. She does an outstanding job looking /selecting vendors for her event.
Lunch with Biggie is a podcast about small business and creatives sharing their stories and inspiring you to pursue your passion, with some sandwich talk on the side. Created, edited, and produced in Orlando, FL by Biggie- the owner of the sandwich-themed clothing brand- Deli Fresh Threads.
