The Craft Studio
The Craft Studio encompasses three fully equiped studios for creating pottery, candles and hand-made paper. The high-quality artisan crafts are sold directly from our studio, in stores and at craft fairs around the Greater Toronto area.
The artisans with intellectual disabilities who work at the Craft Studio take pride in the unique bowls, mosaics,candles, ceramic crosses, paintings, hand-made cards and paintings they create each day.
As the Studio functions primarily as a working artists' space, general members of the public interested in purchasing pieces on-site are kindly asked to phone ahead before visiting.
Articles crafted at the Studio are also available for sale at
Daybreak Books & Media
, the community's retail shop.
