Noon -6 pm –People's Park

Enter Berkeley's World Crafts Bazaar and you enter our local culture. Where artisans, musicmakers, selected local merchants with ties to music or world culture, and community intermingle.

Since 2008, colorful booths have framed the Festival's People Park Concert. The African sculptures, Tibetan prayer flags, Ecuadorian village handicrafts; instrument makers of African kalimbas & gourds with local culture, face painting, pouches, soaps and more ... create a vibrant market and fun stroll against a backdrop of music.
