It's all we had when we built 30amp and it’s all that most artists have throughout their journey surfing the wave between art and commerce. If you’re not an artist, you can’t understand the very simple premise that to most, the calling and power of the art is so strong that it’s hard to get through life doing anything else….despite the tremendous odds and guaranteed financial hardship. From this calling comes the now ubiquitous term “starving artist”.
Ah, but the dreams we carry in our hearts, our souls and our bags keep us moving forward. In a symbolic gesture to match your support and belief in 30amps dreamers and our collective dream, we “bag”all patrons who support us with a tax deductible $5000 contribution. All hand made by our Executive Director Keith Scriven.
Sleek, elegant and wonderfully practical. The City Dreamer is a backpack, it’s a handbag, it’s four bags in one. This piece can be carried as an elegant handbag, strapped on as a backpack, or unzipped for use as a clutch bag. All of it built by hand, stitch by stitch on a vintage Consew 270 sewing machine by the designer himself and adorned with a handcrafted bracelet.

1. Full Bag – Made of imported Tuscan Italian split-hide leather. Carry by hand or attach the black leather straps and make it a backpack.
2. Saddle Bag – The stand alone saddle bag rests naturally on the main base and quickly and easily detaches, fitting a phone, keys and ear buds.
