Thank You to our Spring 2022 Sponsors!
We are so excited to be hosting our Spring Show at our brand new location that we just know you will love! We can’t wait to welcome you on May 28 and May 29 at the Lighthouse Arts Centre at 1800 Argyle, in the heart of our beautiful city.
We simply could not run this organization, and put on our incredible shows without the amazing support of our sponsors. Please join us in a round of virtual applause for the five businesses who helped us put on this show in Spring 2022:
Presenting Sponsor: Tucker’s Pottery Supplies Inc.
As you may have read in our previous sponsorship shoutout, Tucker’s is based in Richmond Hill Ontario, supplying makers all over the world with the highest quality and best selection of ceramic materials and tools. They have been sponsoring us since 2017 and we are so grateful for our partnership with Frank Tucker and his team. Be sure to check them out for all things ceramics at www.tuckerspotteryeshop.com. It doesn’t matter if you are a beginner or a pro, Tucker’s has you covered.
Community Sponsor: Made in the Maritimes Artisan Boutique
We know that shopping at our craft shows fills up your heart with local love. You can keep that feeling all through the year with Made in the Maritimes! Visit them at their Hydrostone, or Bayer’s Lake locations to see their stunning assortment of local and Canadian made goods. They have something for everyone and you can feel extra good knowing you are supporting our local economy, and many of your favorite Halifax Crafters too. Visit them in person or online at www.madeinthemaritimes.com.
Friends of Halifax Crafters: Argyle Fine Art
We are thrilled to be working with Argyle Fine Art as a new sponsor in 2022. The tagline on their instagram page reads “we believe art is many things to many people. Thanks be to art!” and we just couldn’t agree more. Located at 1559 Barrington Street in downtown Halifax, Argyle Fine Art has been showcasing a unique variety of contemporary art by Canadian artists since opening in 2000. You can find all sorts of amazing pieces in their lovely gallery, paintings, drawings, fibre arts, jewelry, sculpture and more. Make sure to pay them a visit this summer.
Friends of Halifax Crafters: My Home Mercantile
Another new sponsor for us, but by no means a new player! My Home Mercantile has been operating since 2018. Founder, Miriah Kearney, started with the desire to offer a “thoughtful shopping experience with curated products and welcoming environment.” She runs her small business out of Truro and Moncton, and they proudly support over 100 Canadian makers in their shops. You can visit their website: www.myhomemercantile.com They are known for their great customer service in helping you put together the perfect gift or collection of goodies.
Friends of Halifax Crafters: Atlantic News
Our final sponsor is a household name in the downtown Halifax Community. Atlantic News, also a new sponsor to us this year, has operated since 1973! They are located at 5560 Morris Street and have an incredible selection of magazines, newspapers you won't find anywhere else. It is such an inspiring and interesting space to stroll through and we are sure you’ll find something to satisfy your curiosity about any topic or current affair. They also have a great selection of books, puzzles, maps and stock tons of local art cards, selected from over 35 Nova Scotian artists. How amazing!
Well that concludes our sponsorship round-up! As an organization, Halifax Crafters is very grateful for our sponsors. It feels very beautiful to us to be welcoming back longtime, loyal sponsors, and also welcoming some new friends. Make sure you visit these sponsors online or in person. We are proud to work with such a great team of Canadian businesses.
