2025-05-25 10:00 - 16:00 | Central Park – Davis, 5th St & B St, Davis, CA, 95616, United States
Davis Craft and Vintage Fair began as the Square Tomatoes Craft Fair more than 10 years ago! The event was started by instructors from the UC Davis Craft Center in order to have a monthly craft fair for local artisans and the local community. We embraced local vintage vendors in 2017, we’ve grown and we are still home to local artists and makers from the Davis and greater Sacramento area.
We collaborate with local non-profits starting with Couleurs Vives Art Studio who joined us in 2018! Many of our talented vendors can be found at other festivals like the Davis Phoenix Coalition’s Pride Fest, the I-House’s International Festival, and 2nd Friday Art Abouts on E Street Plaza!
Expect to see friendly vendors with local handmade and original art, crafts, quality vintage items, upcycled treasures, earth-friendly creations, good food, and more! Free live music fills the open space for a lively atmosphere so be sure to stop by and join us!

Yolo County’s Latino Working Class
2025-05-25 12:00 - 13:00 | Davis Community Church (DCC), 412 C Street, Davis, CA, 95616, United States
From the kitchens of downtown Davis to the agricultural fields all around us, Yolo County wouldn’t function without the hard work of thousands of Latino workers, a significant portion of whom are undocumented. While this community is under intense threat from the current administration’s policies, this segment of Yolo County’s population has also long reckoned with poverty, lack of political representation, food and housing insecurity, and lack of workplace protections.
Please join Antonio De Loera-Brust for a candid discussion on this population, its role in Yolo County society, and its contributions and needs – which are too often overlooked even in the very liberal community of Davis. Antonio De Loera is the communications director for the United Farm Workers, and brings over a decade of experience working with Yolo County’s Latino working class. Antonio previously worked as the director of the Yolo Interfaith Immigration Network’s after-school program at the Madison Migrant Center from 2013 to 2017, he served as the Latino Outreach Specialist in 2020 and 2021 for Yolo County’s COVID-19 response, helping plan and implement the County’s farm worker vaccination campaign, and in 2024 ran for Yolo County Supervisor in the 4th District. He also has worked as a staffer in the U.S. House of Representatives and served in the Biden-Harris administration as a political appointee at the U.S. Department of State.
