**NEW VENDOR SPOTLIGHT **
Milford Makes

Milford Makes is a community art project built around access, reuse, and connection. Turning donated materials into shared creative experiences.

What Guides Our Work
Creativity Works Better When It’s Shared

Access Over Perfection
Creativity shouldn’t depend on money, skill level, or having the “right” supplies. We design experiences that are welcoming, approachable, and open to everyone.

Reuse With Intention
Donated materials aren’t leftovers—they’re starting points. We value reuse as a creative practice that’s thoughtful, sustainable, and full of possibility.

Connection
Making things together builds confidence, conversation, and community. The process matters just as much as the finished piece.

Why This Matters
A Different Kind of Creative Space
Milford Makes isn’t about classes, credentials, or outcomes—it’s about showing up and making something together.

No Experience Required
Most of our projects are designed so anyone can participate. No pressure, no rules, no expectations—just materials and guidance to get started.

Community-Focused, Not Product-Focused
This isn’t about buying things or producing perfect work. It’s about shared time, shared materials, and shared experiences.

Built to Grow With the Community
We’re starting small with pop-ups, listening carefully, and learning what works so this can grow into something lasting and community-driven.

What we will have available at our booth: Junk Journaling Mystery Bags, Collage Kits, Slow Stitch Kits, Bug Collage Kits (these are all made with donated materials) and we will have our Milford Makes tote bags available for sale.

The proceeds fund our nonprofit mission.

*** NEW VENDOR SPOTLIGHT ***
Inca's Plancha



My name is David Rochabrun, and I proudly hail from Peru. When I was 18, my father made the life-changing decision for us to move to the United States, seeking a brighter future and better opportunities. My journey in the food industry began humbly, starting as a dishwasher, a path many in the industry are familiar with. Over time, I immersed myself in the kitchen environment, learning the intricacies of the culinary world, and gradually worked my way up through most of the stations in the restaurant.

The idea of founding Inca’s Plancha with my wife, Sulvy Rojas, was born from countless conversations and brainstorming sessions over the past five years. We both shared a dream of creating something of our own, a venture that combined our skills and passions. We believed it was the perfect time to embark on this new chapter, leveraging our strengths.

With 24 years of hands-on experience in the food industry and my wife’s extensive background in customer service, we felt confident in our abilities to create a unique and successful business. My expertise in the kitchen, paired with her exceptional customer service skills, formed the foundation of Inca’s Plancha. Together, we brought our vision to life, aiming to offer something unique and deeply rooted in our cultural heritage.
