Future Heritage

Cliché is making a bet that three of its Minnesota-made brands — clothing lines Winsome Goods and Hackwith Design House and backpack line Viska — will one day be considered heritage brands. The boutique spotlights the quality and craftsmanship of these brands as part of its Future Heritage event, along with bites, sips and tunes from DJ Ken Hannigan. (6-8 p.m. Fri. Cliché, 2403 Lyndale Av. S., Mpls. 612-870-0420 or www.cliche­mpls.com.)

Craftstravaganza

Craftstravaganza is an institution when it comes to handmade crafts for the hipster set. The market has 90 vendors as well as free workshops and activities from Crafty Planet and Minnesota Center for Book Arts. New items include ceramic kitchenwear from Fringe & Fettle, leather goods made from old couches by the aptly named Couch Skinner, moss terrariums from Moss Love and screen-printed totes by PartlyCloudy Collective. (10 a.m.-5 p.m. Sat. Progress Center, State Fairgrounds, Falcon Heights. www.craftstravaganza.com.)
