We’re so happy to be carrying this awesome local initiative; Maker’s Magazine. Now in Kensington we’ve got their second edition Magazine which includes a “Wake and Make” patch, designed by Siiri Vaisanen, who is also responsible for the gorgeous cover.
To celebrate this launch, Rawspace is hosting a pop-up this Saturday the 16th from 11am-6pm at 270 Carlaw Ave. This party is not to be missed, as there will be lots of local makers in attendance and giveaways to enter!
Regardless if you can make it out, we have a small quantity of copies in our Kensington shop to peruse & get inspired! Issues retail for $25 a piece.
We are very excited to have a new magazine in our Kensington shop from the Oakville, ON locals – Maker’s Movement!
From their website: “Maker’s Movement is an online platform and bi-annual print publication that celebrates creativity… Maker’s Movement exists to support and promote handmade and independent businesses. We strive to overcome the expectations that attempt to define us. We believe in taking accountability for our happiness and carving our own paths toward self-sustainability.”
Couldn’t have said it better ourselves! Their first issue themed around “Mother Nature” is in the shop now! Settle in with a cup of tea and get inspired by these Canadian makers!
Maker’s Movement Issue 1 is available for purchase at our Kensington location for $25.
We just received the winter 2014 issue of Toronto’s design guide, ‘Designlines’ and we’re on page 109 as part of a DIY/hands-on workshop gift guide for the city!
Kid Icarus is in good company, alongside Paintlounge and The Shop.
