Don’t forget it’s the MaArte Fair this weekend
FOR ITS 10th year, the MaArte Fair turns its eyes on the men, this year offering the Pinoy ManCave category alongside its special products for the home and for ladies. The Pinoy ManCave exhibitors include Randy Ortiz, Siklo Pilipinas (upcycled rubber tires), Cosimo Leathersmiths, and Rameilius Trading Inc.
The MaArte Fair will be held on Aug. 10 to 12 at The Peninsula Manila in Makati.
This year, there will be a little above 40 exhibitors, with about 14 new vendors added to the list, offering jewelry, accessories, fashion, and homeware. They include Gifts and Graces; “threadwork” by Good Luck, Humans; Domesticity’s houseware; Piopio’s fashion made with handwoven fabrics; Oscar Mejia’s perfumes; Cosimo Leathersmiths; jewelry by Nicole Whisenhunt and Tim Tam Ong; pottery by Joey de Castro; Tali Handmade’s bags; and herbal teas from Tsaa Laya.
Twenty percent of the proceeds of the MaArte Fair goes to the Museum Foundations of the Philippines Inc., which then forwards its earnings to the National Museum to further its projects.
