Artist Sandra Fowler sure knows what to do with glass...and you know, Christmas is coming and we have a registry. (We thought you'd appreciate knowing!)
 










Each layer of glass is cut with dramatic movement, allowing each piece to dance when the light hits them.

September 21st was World Gratitude Day...

it's never too late to say THANK YOU!!

It's been three years and we're still loving how Shervin Communications Inc. captured the way we wanted to express ourselves to the world...thanks Shervinites!

Come in for a visit to listen, 

 and connect to, 

the stories of the art 

created within sight of the Salish Sea...

It's as local 

 as local  

can be!

and the water caught fire.”

Photographer Shawn Aylesworth sure knows how to capture 'the greatest show on earth' over Deep Bay! Because Shawn prints his work onto metallic paper, his prints have a vibrant glow that fills us with that familiar emotion we get when the sun sets before us. Looking at his images feels like you're right there watching the show in person!

Of the many perks the Market offers us, one of our favourite things is receiving yummy baked goodies from the many generous community members. 

The bad news is that half a dozen of these arrived this morning and Sharon isn't here this week! I've managed to give one away but the rest of them are filling my nose and distracting me beyond measure! 

 Come on locals...help me out here!!

Do we offer complimentary gift wrapping you ask?

Did Emily Carr have a pet monkey? 

(The answer is of course, YES!)

What are we loving this week? 

These fabulous "West Coasters" (see what we did there?) by artist Roy Allen. 

Subtly finished with our iconic Douglas fir tree. 

Functional. 

Funky.
