After the 2008 housing crash, tiny homes made a big splash, as many aspiring homeowners achieved their dreams by downsizing. Most tiny homes aren’t much bigger than a standard college dorm room. TinyFest is a weekend-long showcase of tiny homes in all their surprising little forms. There are houses on wheels, van conversions, shipping container homes and skoolies—school buses turned into mobile homes. Engage with speakers in workshops promoting sustainability, minimalism and more mindful living. Plus, check out live music, food and the Simply Living Marketplace. (WR)
