One Thing Worth Mentioning


If you weren't so lucky to attend our last gallery, featuring Bruno Billio and Magic Pony, we are having a small reception this friday (20) to recap the awesome time we had before. If you are so inclined, get on over here! Our doors are opening around 8pm and we have some beer to offer, if you want to drink anything else, you may have to bring it.

Greenbarn at the Artscape Wychwood Barns





We are beyond proud to have had a small hand in The Stop Community Food Centre's project at the beautiful Artscape Wychwood Barns. We thank them for not having a heart attack as we delivered these tables mere hours before their Winterlicious event last Monday. You can find out more by clicking on the title.

The PCC Streetcar


If you were old enough to be an adult when the TTC was selling these classic streetcars off for a dollar each (as I seem to recall was the case at some point during my childhood) and you didn't buy one, then I say "shame on you". You are lucky you aren't banned from the store.

Michael Fried lectures at University of Toronto


Between March 24 and March 27, the influential art historian Michael Fried is delivering a series of 4 lectures at University College. Watch as sweaty, nervous grad students hit him with prepared questions whilst you smugly sit back.

Here is a refresher: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Fried

White Squirrel



Two reasons that the new "White Squirrel" coffee shop on Queen West is deserving of praise. One, for finally acknowledging those amazing genetic aberrations that are the white squirrels of Trinity Bellwoods park. Second, for having the vision to take several utterly unmerchandised boxes of oak parquet flooring from our basement to have turned into table tops. Go there and buy some damned coffee.

Updates

Hey Everybody! Just a few notes about the store:

Thanks first off to everyone who joined us on Friday for our design party. It was a hit, and we'd like to thank Bruno and Magic Pony for helping us with their installations. We had a top notch party with drinks, dj and designers.



Secondly, I wanted to add that we have even more vintage wallpaper brought in and its selling fast. If you want some, its $10 a roll, and is from Italy.

And finally, starting March 14th, Smash and Jerome Jenner Fine Art are starting screen printing classes. These classes are taught by Jeff Garcia and are taught on site in our new silk screen studio. Want to know more? Phone us!

Today is the Day

This turns out to be the perfect music to sand tables to at 4 a.m. Partly because it won't wake the neighbours
