🌟 Support Local Makers This Holiday Season 🌟
I want to share something real about what it’s like to be a small business on the North Shore.
👉 The Shipyards Market is beautiful — but it’s also very expensive for vendors. Most makers barely make their table back. It’s incredibly hard to sustain a small business that way.
👉 In contrast, Lonsdale Quay Market has done a massive rehaul and created a stunning Artisan Alley where tables are about $75–$100/day — which gives small vendors a fighting chance to actually succeed.
That’s why I (and many other makers) have chosen to set up there this season. I’ll be at Lonsdale Quay on:
📅 Nov 7–8, Nov 21–22, Dec 4–6, and Dec 11–13.
The vibe is cozy, affordable, and community-driven — and there’s also Crave Culture Café, amazing local shops upstairs, and great restaurants nearby.
✨ If you love supporting handmade, local, and sustainable — come by Lonsdale Quay this Christmas. Every purchase helps keep small businesses alive.
