Four weeks have come and gone and Core77's Hand-Eye Supply has left Los Angeles and closed the doors on our Pop-Up Institute for Craft & Ingenuity. But what an incredible four weeks it was! The happening hosted workshops, film series, roaring rock and roll and an uber-curated version of our Portland retail store. With the help of Urban Outfitters' incredibly talented retail ninjas the month long event was a phenomenon of grand magnitude! For a tour of the pop-up's construction, design and development process check out this post.
To both express our gratitude to our many collaborators and to share our fabulous experience we'd like to share a bit of our extensive documentation. Check it out below!
