Wicker Park Festival 2011!

Zaraz and the lovely community of Chicago came together this past weekend for the annual Wicker Park Festival which has been bringing everyone together since 2003 and is proclaimed to be "one of the best summer street festivals" by Chicago Tribune. 

Our Mission:

Zaraz is not your typical boutique with just jewelry & accessory's, we strive to bring the community together in new and exciting ways by throwing special events where we can interact with customers, local stores & bring together smiles. During this two day festival, we put together a creative table for all ages to take part in by scrap booking or telling us "What inspires you!?" 

Take a LOOK :)

Check out our internee's all decked out for the day! How awesome are these outfits?!
