From oddities, crafts, spiritual healing, art, food and more, The Spring Arts and Oddities Market hosted by Lunar Vibes is coming to Rochester Saturday.

The event is at the Fulton County Historical Society Museum from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Operated by Lunar Vibes business owner Mercedes Grimm, the show plans to bring together a collective of eclectic vendors and artist to one place, making it 'not your typical Indiana craft show.'

The idea for the craft shows came after Grimm started up her business, Lunar Vibes, in 2019. Making her own candles, soaps, and unique oddities, and art for Lunar Vibes, the one thing that stopped her from going to local Farmers Markets was the hours.

Deciding to organize her own craft shows that would work more around her schedule, she began adding unique vendors from across the state. Grimm's first event in Peru in 2020 was such a success that she decided to keep the momentum of business going.

Saturday's event in Rochester will be Grimm's 30th craft show.

Growing a crowd and following has also helped her business Lunar Vibes. Starting out with just a handful of items to sell, Grimm now makes over 100 different products to sell for her business. Grimm said most of those products tend to sell fairly quickly once they hit the shelves, with most customers returning back for more.

Not able to check out the event Saturday, but still wanting to check out Lunar Vibes, and Grimm's circus of businesses? Grimm is also now co-owner of a storefront location called Homespun Vibes, located at 376 Walnut St in Wabash. Much like her oddities and art shows, Homespun Vibes provides a variety of eclectic art, gift items, oils, homemade soaps, candles, decor, and more.
