Holiday Misfit Market at LullCoSaturday, December 13 • 9:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.
LullCo Design Studio – Ann Arbor, MI
Suggested donation: $10 at the door
A Holiday Market for the Misfits Makers of Washtenaw County
Forget copy-paste gifts and crowded big box stores. The Holiday Misfit Market is a one-day celebration of the people who passionately make things in our community… by hand, with heart, and often on very little sleep.
Visit us Saturday December 13th from 9am – 6pm to see how many different vendors and gift ideas we can fit inside this 5,800 sq ft. studio.
When you get here you’ll find:
Dozens of local makers with handmade wares
One-of-a-kind gifts you won’t see anywhere else
Art, textiles, furniture, home decor, jewelry, oddities, upcycled treasures & more
A welcoming space where misfits, newcomers, and seasoned pros share the same floor
Why “Misfit” Market?
Most holiday shows around here are juried. That’s great for some, but tough for new and emerging makers trying to get a foot in the door.
The Holiday Misfit Market at LullCo is:
Non-juried – no panel deciding who’s “good enough”
Free for vendors – your dollars go directly to the people making the work
Inclusive by design – beginners, side-hustlers, kitchen-table crafters, and established artists all welcome
When you shop here, you’re not just buying a product. You’re helping someone in your community keep the lights on.
Your $10 Donation Does Real Work
We’re suggesting a $10 donation at the door (pay what you can; no one is turned away).
That donation helps:
Keep the studio lights on
Put food on the tables of the makers and teachers who work here
Support local jobs in the trades, arts, and creative industries
Maintain a welcoming space where people can learn upholstery, sewing, fabrication, and more. Skills that can turn into real income and stability
Every dollar you spend at the Misfit Market… whether it’s at the door or at a vendor table, it stays in the local economy. You’re literally helping keep roofs over heads and tools in hands.
A Peek at the Future: LullCo Mercantile
The Holiday Misfit Market is also a preview of what’s coming in 2026: LullCo Mercantile.
We’re building:
A growing network of makers, upholsterers, woodworkers, sewists, and fabricators
A place where you’ll be able to find local creatives year-round, not just at holiday time
More opportunities for new makers to learn, sell, and get discovered
This years market is one chapter in a much bigger story: a community-rooted creative economy where we support eachother and create the habitats and environments that help us to thrive.
Why Shop Here?
When you choose to buy from a local maker, you’re choosing:
A gift with a face and a story
Lower waste, more repair, more reuse
Less money leaving town for corporate shareholders—and more staying right here, circulating through our neighborhoods
It’s the difference between another package on a porch and a purchase that actually matters.
