FROM IRL TO URL CRAFT MARKETPLACE
Just because we can't gather together IRL right now, doesn't mean we can't come together as a virtual community to shop local, engage with workshops + classes, and enjoy LIVE music. Join us September 17-20 2020 for our first experiential virtual craft marketplace showcasing quality Canadian brands. 50% of ticket prices will go to support Canadian BIPOC organizations.
A MESSAGE FROM OUR MAKERS ON OUR FIRST VIRTUAL MARKET
Our favourite things right now.
A freewheeling Craft Market is...
A thoughtfully curated showcase of the very best emerging & established artisans from our local maker community. We pull together engaging event experiences, offering thematic retail pop-ups featuring the opportunity for consumers to meet the makers…
We never thought we would have to ask this...
My heart is exploding with pride watching how Ottawa is showing up to support local during the covid19 business stoppage. Your support means a lot of these local businesses, restaurants + makers will be here when we're on the other side of this. We want to be here, ready to go when its time and we want to be able to offer our makers the opportunity to connect with you IRL once again. But we know that because money might be tight, they might struggle to afford it. Thats why we are starting a maker fund that will not only help us get through this so that we are here for them, but also to offer our community members who were the hardest hit the opportunity they need to get back on their feet.
