Beers, Burgers & A Bazaar: Flipside Spring Market Back With New Curator, 13 Local Artists

TINLEY PARK, IL — Beer fans and artisan market shoppers are invited to kick off spring with the return of a favorite.

The Flipside Spring Bazaar is back at Flipside Brewing (7144 183rd St, Tinley Park, IL) on Sunday, April 27 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. — and this season brings new faces, fresh vendors, and a new curator at the helm.

Curated for the first time by local artist, member of the Streetz Artz Alliance, and small business owner Teagan Hofmann of Ten Cups Tarot, this indoor artisan market is part of the brewery's Beers, Burgers, and a Bazaar event series. It’s a cozy and creative experience that invites guests to eat, sip, shop, and support over 13 local makers and artists, including several that are new to the space.

"This will be my ninth event as a vendor at Flipside, and my very first-time curating,"said Hofmann. "I’m thrilled to showcase such a vibrant and diverse collection of artists, including brand-new vendors like Yasmine Abed Art, Galaxy Skincare, and Penguino Productions—all making their Flipside debut!"

WHAT TO EXPECT

This one-day-only event is free to attend and open to all ages. Come hungry! Flipside Brewing will be serving up their full menu of favorites like smash burgers, fish & chips, mac & cheese, wings, pretzel sticks, grilled cheese, and more—with kid-friendly options available.

Behind the bar, the brewery is pouring a wide selection of beers, from lagers and hazy IPAs to English-style pub ales and Irish stouts. For those who aren't beer fans, check out a draft cocktail, cider, mocktail, or a glass of wine. And don’t miss their popular Impasta Syndrome Italian Pilsner, which owner Erik Pizer describes as having “a light cracker and bread malt character that lays the perfect base for floral, herbal, and lemongrass notes from Hersbrucker and Saphir hops.”

VENDOR SPOTLIGHTS

Among the lineup of talented vendors are some standouts:

Sprig & Flame

Dedicated to well-being through scent and sustainability, Sprig & Flame crafts hand-poured candles using a 100 percent coconut and beeswax blend, wood wicks, and essential oil-based fragrances. Plastic-free and packaged in reusable glass or ceramic jars, their products are a warm embrace of nature, mindfulness, and intentional living.

Nethercrafts

A queer-owned studio founded in Chicago, Nethercrafts brings a bold mix of light and dark with resin art, spirit boards, terrariums, keychains, and handmade oddities. Their one-of-a-kind creations range from mystical to whimsical, always with a touch of the unexpected.
