Our Gift Shop reopened on May 1, and we’re so happy to welcome some wonderful new local artists and makers to the shelves.

New to the shop this season: paintings by Sheila Hobenshield and Arlene Armstrong, Joanne Hobbs’ handcrafted Shaker boxes, and Marian Wilson’s porcelain chickens.

We’re also pleased to have back some returning favourites, including Louise Everest’s knitting and art cards by Nancy Vince and Cathy Shultz.
If you haven’t popped in lately, come take a look — there’s lots to discover, and every purchase helps support local artists and makers in our community.
