WICKER PARK — Calling itself the "largest independent craft fair in the world," the Renegade Craft Fair will mark its 14th annual takeover of Wicker Park next month. 

During the weekend of Sept. 10-11, Division Street will be crammed between Damen Avenue and Ashland Avenue with more than 400 purveyors of hand-crafted goods.

They'll include Book Club Chicago, whose booth will include "screen printing and clay molding stations" alongside a moderated book club discussion and a library of Chicago authors.

Food vendors will run the gamut from Dia de los Tamales and Puffs of Doom to DönerMen, with Half Acre Beer Company and Tito's Vodka handling drinks. 

Meanwhile, pet rescue non-profit One Tail at a Time will bring "adoptable dogs for people to meet."

The fair will last from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. both days.
