Shannon Okey

My business card reads “I make things happen” and that about sums it up. Author, editor, indie publisher, IBPA board member, knitwear designer, fiber artist, and founder of Northeast Ohio’s longest-running maker-focused handmade retail pop-up event series, Cleveland Bazaar (since 2004). I’m most proud of the work I do championing makers of all kinds.
