You’re invited to the 1st market of its kind in the State Capitol of California at the Tsakopoulous Library Galleria in Sacramento!

Witness the ODD, the CURIOUS, the WEIRDness of our Menagerie… We’ve curated a market featuring 50+ vendors selling extraordinary wares! Find bones, bugs, taxidermy, dark art, unique jewelry, medical specimens, natural science, and all kinds of freakish delights!

Our spectacular event features butterfly pinning workshops and entertainment from the likes of SkyHigh Odditorium, DJ Dire, DJ DUC (Duke Jones) with his phanstastic organ pipe ensemble, and Dj Chat Noir.

 

BUTTERFLY PINNING WORKSHOP

Artist Deni Kendig of Sparrowsongs will host 3 amazing workshops on butterfly pinning during our spectacular event! Students will learn how to ethically source specimens, the basics of entomology, and best ways to spread, mount & care for them so they can create beautiful art or have a fabulous collection of their own.

This class is NOT recommended for children under the age of 8.
