THREAD Show Heads to Orange County on 2010 Independent Design Tour

Posted on August 18, 2010 | 9:00am

THREAD Show, the multi-city shopping event promoting emerging designers and artists, is headed to Orange County as the next stop on its 2010 tour. In each market, THREAD will showcase 100 independent designers, as well as complementary music, art, food and entertainment. This year, THREAD is also adding a home section to the event, inviting independent designers of furniture, art and housewares to apply for the spring shows.

“There are loads of brilliant reasons we should all shop at THREAD,” explains Lara Matthews, founder of THREAD. “This is a unique opportunity to support independent designers, invest in your local economy and decrease your carbon footprint. But what I love the most about the designs I discover through THREAD is that they are not mass-produced and are made with a level of care and quality that I don’t find at most commercial retailers.” Read More
