    “I’m excited about the move to the Convention Center,” says Event Organizer Megan Green. “It offers just as much space but is even more centrally located [then last year’s location at Veteran’s Memorial].”

    Green, who also owns Stinky Bomb Soaps, has been heading up the event for the past seven years.

    For the Spring Fling, Craftin’ Outlaws will feature over 80 vendors from all over Central Ohio and the Midwest. Anyone looking for something unique to gift this Mother’s Day should be able to find something perfect at Craftin’ Outlaws.

    Games and raffles, and the popular Plinko, can be found throughout the event with proceeds going to benefit the Columbus Diaper Coalition and Diaper Connection.

    Craftin’ Outlaws will take place Saturday, April 19, 2014 from 11am to 6pm at the Greater Columbus Convention Center in Ballrooms 1 and 2. Admission is free. Craftin’ Outlaws returns November 15, 2014 with a holiday themed show at the same location. For more information, visit CraftinOutlaws.com.
