Remembrance Day
We will be closed until 12:30pm on Saturday, November 11th.
Shows
Our last show for the 2023 season was a few weeks ago. We would like to thank everyone who came out to see us at one (or many) of our shows this year. It is always a great joy to reconnect with familiar faces as well as getting to meet new ones. We look forward to a break in the schedule to restock, refresh and regroup.
Food Bank
From November 1st to 25th, we are accepting donations for the Ottawa Food Bank.
Donate in-store or online (type "food" in the search bar of our website to make an online donation). The food bank is always in need of healthy nutritious meals for the whole family. Not only are they in need of non-perishable food items but also personal hygiene products and baby products (two of the most needed but least donated items).
Let's help to restock the shelves ahead of the holiday season.
As a thank you for making a donation, we will enter your name into a draw for a $100 gift card here at the store (can be used in person or online).
