What are you doing this weekend? You don’t have to leave Vancouver to visit Salt Spring Island. Crazy, right?
On March 27-29, Salt Spring in the City will bring the island’s bohemian lifestyle and fresh finds from its most awesome artisans to Vancouver’s Heritage Hall (15th and Main). From the modern to the rustic, chic to traditional — with over 30 unique brands to discover, there’s something for everyone!
I’ve never been to Salt Spring Island, but I used to have a penpal who lived there. She often told me about the the artists who lived there. I’m happy to know that many of the island’s artists will be at the Salt Spring Island in the City event.
Here is just one of my favourite pieces you can expect to see at the event:

Julie MacKinnon Ceramics –Ceramics/Pottery
Take a look at the Salt Spring in the City website for more glimpses at the artists’ creations, and see some of the gallery below:
