We’re excited to unveil this year’s Craft Lineup—a handpicked collection of artisans, makers, and small businesses that reflect the spirit of creativity at Pickathon. From Portland’s vibrant maker scene to visionary creators from across the region, the 2025 lineup brings together a unique mix of handcrafted goods, wearable art, home goods, and more.
Meet the Makers

Lyko Slow Goods
Shop Lyko Slow Goods is a woman-owned + operated brick & mortar, founded in the heart of craft counter-culture, Portland, OR. They coined the term “Slow Goods” to describe the earth-friendly, ethically-produced wares they sell- basing it on the better-known Slow Food movement. They curate plant-powered, ethically-produced goods that support a low-impact, mindful lifestyle in the areas of independent, sustainable fashion, homegoods, gifts and wellness.
Bloodroot Jewels
Bloodroot Jewels is a one woman shop created by Nikki Erickson. Nikki is from Portland, Oregon and has been making jewelry since she was 18. Her journey with jewelry making started when she found a squirrel skull and made her first necklace out of it. She was hooked from there! She began to collect road kill and bones to work with and her work slowly evolved. Her favorite mediums to use are bones, stones and shells. She specializes in one of a kind statement pieces and loves to bring her visions to life.
Rabblebox
Folk artists Brian Cummings and Gage Reeves bring back one of Pickathon’s most interactive booths with their one-of-a-kind 3-string guitars and amps—each handmade from repurposed containers and salvaged materials. Designed for all ages and abilities, Rabblebox invites every festivalgoer to pick up an instrument and jam. Born from a shared creative journey during the pandemic, Rabblebox is more than a booth—it’s a living tribute to American folk instrument traditions, accessibility through art, and the joy of making music together.
The Bag Lady
A bag for every occasion. Made to fit your style and be functional. Natural fibers, and are made in small batches. Emily combines creativity and sustainability in her sewing. She transforms vintage and reused fabrics into beautiful bags and accessories. Inspired by her mother, a skilled seamstress, Emily focuses on giving new life to forgotten materials and finding beauty in what others overlook.

The Venderia is an art gallery, convenience store, thrift shop and oracle inside a glowing vending machine. Find us in your favorite Portland bars and boutiques vending art and oddities by hundreds of local makers.
Lynx To Earth
Lynx To Earth specializes in UV-reactive minerals and unusual geological oddities, handpicked and crafted by the team behind Scorpion Haven & Azalea Jadeite in Winnemucca, NV. With a collection ranging from fluorescent specimens to carved curios, they’ve built a following through their Etsy storefront and pop-up appearances like the Gem & Mineral shows.

Dirtbag Boyfriend is dedicated to offering a delightful range of homemade crocheted goods and fun apparel designs that reflect the creativity and skill of our artisans. Our collection includes a variety of unique accessories and seasonal essentials crafted to elevate your look with a touch of individuality and warmth.
Flower Bud
Flower Bud began as a small furniture workshop and naturally evolved into a brand specializing in handcrafted cannabis accessories and furniture. Seeing an opportunity in an underserved market, we combined a love for woodworking with modern cannabis culture to create high-quality, design-forward pieces that elevate the smoking experience. Every item is made by hand in Portland using locally sourced lumber, crafted with care by owner Tony and a few close friends who help sand, assemble, and bring each piece to life.
El Gato Montes
El Gato Montes specializes in high-quality, consciously sourced, handcrafted leather goods with stone embellishments. We offer several types of holsters, belts, belt bags, purses, accessories, and our famous hand-stitched leather boots with Vibram soles.
This year’s craft marketplace will be one of our most dynamic yet—an open-air experience where you can connect directly with the artists behind the work. Whether you’re looking for a meaningful souvenir, a one-of-a-kind gift, or just want to explore what’s being made by today’s most inspired creatives, the Craft Lineup is a must-visit.
Make time to stop by, shop around, and take home something special!
