Blind Date with a Book - Brixton

Blind Date with a Book - Brixton

To keep books out of landfill , SoLo Craft Fair will be treating guests to a 'Blind Date with a Book'... what on earth does this mean I hear you cry?!

Well, the concept is simple (if not a little abstract) - members of the SoLo Craft Fair team will set up camp outside their shop in Brixton with a selection of 'blind' books on display.

Blind books are books with their covers hidden under wrapping paper, with only a few written details describing what you can expect from your book date. Everyone who comes can choose a book based purely on its 'personality'. Will you be choosing a dangerous, classic or romantic date? And what's better still, it will be free to meet your date and take them home with you! (If you have any 'dates' at home that you no longer feel the spark with, feel free to bring them and swap for a new model - this is encouraged in this new line of dating but you are welcome to turn up completely unattached!)

With our 'Blind Dates with a Book' we plan to bring a bit of cheer to the community prior to the onset of what the news keeps reporting as one of the hardest winters to come. All books will be second hand so the concept is completely sustainable and doesn't cost anything to those taking part.

What's better still, one of the books will contain a £10 SoLo Craft Fair voucher to spend in the shop if you pick the lucky book!

This event will be taking place outside the new SoLo Craft Fair shop in the iconic Brixton Village, after you’ve picked up your book browse our shop which showcases the designs of 50 local makers and designers. Then grab some lunch or drinks at some of the incredible independent eateries and bars in the village.

Find us at 97 Granville Arcade, next to one of the Coldharbour Lane entrances, nextdoor to Lions Vibe record shop.

Expect a range of art, jewellery, fashion, kids' products, and more from some of London's best independent designers.

In addition to this, each market will host a workshop for you to participate in, absolutely free. This could be anything from candle decorating to tarot reading, so keep your eye peeled for more information on this. Alongside the market, Between the Bridges will host bars, delicious food vendors, a huge screen showing sports, and DJs, providing plenty to do once you've finished shopping at our market.

  • Sunday 12th May - launch event

  • Sunday 2nd June

Blind Date with a Book - Brixton

To keep books out of landfill , SoLo Craft Fair will be treating guests to a 'Blind Date with a Book'... what on earth does this mean I hear you cry?!

Well, the concept is simple (if not a little abstract) - members of the SoLo Craft Fair team will set up camp outside their shop in Brixton with a selection of 'blind' books on display.

Blind books are books with their covers hidden under wrapping paper, with only a few written details describing what you can expect from your book date. Everyone who comes can choose a book based purely on its 'personality'. Will you be choosing a dangerous, classic or romantic date? And what's better still, it will be free to meet your date and take them home with you! (If you have any 'dates' at home that you no longer feel the spark with, feel free to bring them and swap for a new model - this is encouraged in this new line of dating but you are welcome to turn up completely unattached!)

With our 'Blind Dates with a Book' we plan to bring a bit of cheer to the community prior to the onset of what the news keeps reporting as one of the hardest winters to come. All books will be second hand so the concept is completely sustainable and doesn't cost anything to those taking part.

What's better still, one of the books will contain a £10 SoLo Craft Fair voucher to spend in the shop if you pick the lucky book!

This event will be taking place outside the new SoLo Craft Fair shop in the iconic Brixton Village, after you’ve picked up your book browse our shop which showcases the designs of 50 local makers and designers. Then grab some lunch or drinks at some of the incredible independent eateries and bars in the village.

Find us at 97 Granville Arcade, next to one of the Coldharbour Lane entrances, nextdoor to Lions Vibe record shop.
