La Superette 2009 will transform a space at 210 Front Street for three days, creating a temporary store that will present a huge selection of artist-made multiples from around the country. Now in it’s 11th year, La Superette is one of the few crafty events with a non-commercial goal: to support and distribute the works of independent artists and designers. The variety of items include hacked clothes, assemblage accessories, housewares, artists books and CDs. Emerging once a year, just in time for holiday shopping, La Superette offers the most unique and affordable shopping experience for hundreds of shoppers year after year. This year, more than ever, is a time to celebrate the craftiest and be a part of an event that represents the true spirit of New York City.

La Superette 2009 includes live performances by Arp�ge (Nick Hallett and Ray Sweeten), Anwar Pruitt, Maria Chavez, Carrie Dashow, Pixel Form, Todd Bailey, NAUM f/ Antoine Catala, David Linton, and David Galbraith. La Superette 2009 will also feature Rainbow Cloud City (an art installation created by the collaboration HappyFun, Erik Z., and Rachel Nelson), Edible Winter Snowballs, Coal, Icicles, Pine Cones, and Warm Drinks by Rachael Morrison, and a free ScrapCycle gift-wrapping station by Analogous Projects.
