Event Alert: Winnipeg, Manitoba

Artistic and crafty folks in Winnipeg be warned, you don’t want to miss Saturday’s event at Aqua Books.  Known as Winnipeg’s “Cultural City Hall”, it is so much more than a bookstore.  If you head down to 274 Garry Street on Saturday, you will find Crafty Minions: The Handmade and Vintage Sale.

Curious as to what you will find at Crafty Minions?  The Aqua Books site says it best:   “Banish all thoughts of rows and rows of crocheted slippers or washcloths or ponybead keychains…think, instead, vintage-inspired handmade dresses, leather and ribbon wrist corsets, funky jewelery made of vintage silverware, tiny ceramic apartment buildings and octopus tentacles, retro aprons hand-embroidered with sassy 80s pop lyrics…”

Sounds fun, right?  Admission is free, and more info can be found here.  Doors open at 11:00 am and the show runs until 5:00 pm.
