Meltdown Comics in Hollywood has long been known for its well-curated selection of comic art ephemera, but now they're marking new territory in the arts/design community and that's because of Felt Club, a monthly mini craft show. Every month, shoppers and collectors alike can visit with about 30 different artists/vendors in one fabulous place.

The show debuted in May and offers an impressive variety of original handiwork for sale direct from the artists. Affordable silk-screens and original art, handbags, clothing and cupcakes can all be found in the back parking lot. A new rotation of sought-after DIY designers are introduced each month, so be sure to mark it down on your calendar every month or you'll be kicking yourself later.

The next Felt Club throw down will take place at Meltdown Comics, 7522 Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA on Saturday, July 8th, 11am-6pm.

Vendors for this month will include the prolific Felt Club founders cakemountain and Sew Darn Cute, gorgeous silk-screens by Jordan Crane, adorable multi-lingual t-shirts by I Heart Guts, and many more.

Felt Club kicks up some dirt on the second Saturday of every month, 11am - 6pm, and is located (for now) in the back parking lot of Meltdown Comics & Collectibles at 7522 Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA.
