Vancouver’s Etsy Team is excited to be participating in Etsy: Made in Canada for the second year, with 78 passionate, local artists taking part. From 10:00am to 5:00pm, visitors will be able to shop local favourites such as province-shaped cutting boards from Love my Local, artisanal coasters from JW Coasters, and bold infinity scarves from Veespoke.
Each market across Canada– from Salt Spring Island, to Hamilton to St. John’s– is powered by a dedicated Etsy Team and key partners like Moneris, Canada Post and Airbnb. Each Team’s Leader is committed to reflecting the individual culture of their community, while providing support and insight to members and newcomers looking to open an Etsy shop.
Etsy shoppers unable to make it to their local Made in Canada marketplace can shop participating vendors from across the country on Etsy.com/madeincanada and year round on Etsy.com.
