Hello Everyone!!
Well, it’s that time again….. Eastside Culture Crawl is this weekend, and it promises to be better than even last year (which was awesome!!) I’ve been working late to make sure we have loads of new things for even the choosiest of Astrosatchel fans, and lots of new stuff that isn’t available in stores.
If you’re starting your holidays shopping, there’s a lot of items perfect for gifting, and we have quite a lot of items for under $40.00 (which includes our sale bin— shop early, that’s all I can say on that!!) If you’re hungry, fear not, we’re serving an all vegan menu this go around (come early before that’s all gone too!!) and if you’re naked, we’ll have lots of clothing options for the clothing optional!!
There are 13 artists showing at 339 Railway Street, more than ever before, so it should be lots of fun!! I still have a few copies of the program guide left too, so if you make us your first stop, be sure to ask for a copy.
The best thing about the Eastside Culture Crawl is the event itself: in its 12th year and with over 300 participating artsts, it’s one of the largest open studio events in Western Canada, and it’s an artist run event– Top notch in my books!! It’s a chance to peek inside the studios and minds of fellow Vancouverites…… come on, you know you want to!! This year the Crawl is important for other reasons: Development looms large over many artists, who’s studio buildings are owned by property development companies. When we lose buildings, we put our local arts and culture at severe risk….. but most of the time, people don’t know we exist in these buildings in the first place……. so it’s super important to come out and see what’s happening in our city— Robson street will still be there next weekend!!
