A weekend dedicated to the arts, shopping and some Spring-cleaning is just what Dr. Yelp prescribes.
Still having Olympic withdrawals? The Olympic Warehouse Sale might help. It’s your last chance this Friday night–so if you miss seeing Sumi, Quatchi or Miga, you can get your Olympic fix at rock bottom prices.
Let the music of Amelia Curren and Rose Cousins soothe your soul, Saturday night at the Media Club. Curren’s music is “rich in metaphor and instrumentation,” while Rose Cousins “witty onstage banter, combined with music makes it customary to both laugh and cry” during her shows. Will you be in the audience to find out?
To complete the weekend, you’ve got to check out Make It–The Handmade Revolution. This isn’t your grandma’s typical craft show! It’s an upbeat experience that gives enlightened shoppers the opportunity to buy unique, ethically made goods directly from Canada’s top urban artisans and designers. The funky, hip and modern vibe comes complete with music spun by local super talent DJ Leanne, tasty treats… and grown up libations! (Come spin the Wheel Of Yelp for prizes!)
Worried about your closest space after all that shopping? Do some Spring-Cleaning and celebrate the art of sharing by bringing your gently worn items to The Frock Swap Sunday afternoon. Who can say no to free clothes, refreshments, sustainable shopping and saying goodbye to your never worn agains?
And while it’s not the weekend per se, it is Cinco De Mayo this coming Wednesday. Doing anything more than te-kill-ya shots?
