just resharing this incase some of you missed it :)

Groove Cat wants to support our local Vancouver crafters and artisans.

Do you create soaps, jewelry, incense, Vancouver souvenirs, greeting cards, artwork, or other unique handmade goodies that would fit in a groovy independent bookshop?

We’d love to hear from you! Please email us at [email protected] and include:

-A little bit about what you make
-Your contact information
-A photo, website, or link to your creations

Our space is limited, so we’ll only be selecting a small number of local makers at a time for our consignment program.

If we think your creations would be a great fit for Groove Cat, we’ll get in touch with the consignment details and invite you to bring in a sample for us to see.

We’re excited to discover some of the wonderful makers and artisans in our Vancouver community!
