Unique hits LA the weekend prior to Mother’s Day— so get your shopping groove on with this truly “unique” event.
Something special: stationery vendors Joie Studio, Just JENN design and Anemone letterpress offer cards that carry a more personal statement than a store-bought note.
Gift ideas for mom: lotions by Klean Bath & Body; organic made-in-USA pillows by Humble (starting at $26); Ezme handmade, microwave-safe dinnerware; and
Rain Tees ($32), designed by youths living in Central and South American rain forests.
Refresh with free Pabst and Barefoot Wine in The Lounge; get crazy at the ‘Oh Snap!’ Photo Booth (document you and your gal-pals getting bargain lust); get crafty in the DIY Lab and gift wrap area ( perfect for Mother’s Day. Everything’s done. No worries); and nosh at the MALO Pop-Up Eatery ( the run, don’t walk to place to eat) . DJ Bryan D will blast the beats, and there will be great giveaways all weekend. I
Half of the $5 entrance fee (children 10 and younger are free) benefits nonprofit CityLabs (founded by Rasula, along with Knight Foundation and Good magazine), a traveling fair that encourages community volunteering.
