If you're in Toronto when this is happening, I highly recommend. All the artists are local and they have lots of amazing and unique stuff. Plus, they typically run special offers during the show. The line up is long (an hour at least) but entry is free (unless you buy VIP but then you don't have to wait; VIP gives you extra goodies too but if you want VIP buy it early because it sells out fast). When going around the show, it is usually best to see everything first before buying just in case you find something you prefer more or at a better price - but if there is something you really want, you'd best buy right away as they can sell out. The show also has an online website so you can look up the artists ahead of time to get an idea of their work - plus if you miss their show, you can still visit their online store afterwards as the website keeps links to the artists' pages even after the show is done. I went with friends when I went and was a fun experience both times. Was a bit of a wait the first time due to the transit (some sort of marathon was happening which was slowing down traffic) but all in all it was fine. Second time I went to the show they also gave out two postcard freebies to those waiting in line. -- This illustration of what happened during my time there was drawn and inked by hand.
