It’s the first-ever Etsy Made in Canada event and everyone is invited!
Bringing together local Etsy sellers and communities in celebration of the country’s “maker movement,” Saturday, September 27, 23 locations across Canada will host a one-day marketplace for anyone interested in getting hands on with some fabulous local talent.
For one day only and as a part of the first-ever Made in Canada event, 2 Toronto locations: MaRS Discovery District and and OCAD University, will showcase a variety of the local Etsy sellers peddling their one-of-a-kind, handmade and vintage goods.
Personally, I cant wait! Online shopping is great and all, but there’s still something special about getting acquainted with your purchase face to face for the first time, especially when you’re also discovering a new talent you may have never none about.
