Event Description

Join the First Metropolitan Church, the Victoria Cool Aid Society, and Our Place Society in celebrating the talent of emerging and low-income artists in our community. All vendors are highly talented and skilled craftspeople that often lack the resources to take their creations to big craft fairs or exhibitions - this event is the place to find all of that untapped talent on display! In our inaugural year we hosted over 40 vendors and saw several hundred visitors, and this year with your help we hope to make it even more successful. We know that you will find many beautiful and unique art pieces and crafts to take home or to gift this holiday season.

Please be advised that the event will be CASH ONLY for the majority of vendors; organizers will be on hand to help make change where needed. There will be tasty concessions and hot beverages by donation, a raffle for some unique prizes, and plenty of entertainment to go around!

If you are interested in participating, vendor slots are still open for those over the age of 18 who earn less than 25000CAD per year or face other barriers in their life that make it difficult to self-promote their artistic skills. Please contact Nicolas at [email protected] OR call 250-595-8619 between 9am and 3:30pm weekdays to get in touch. All are welcome - if you are unsure if you meet the criteria, please reach out anyway and we would be happy to talk.
