Venue


Today Michelle (organizer) and  I went to take some photos of our venue for Etsy: Made in Canada. It's such a beautiful building and I hope vendors and visitors love and enjoy the space.

The venue is called Locoshop Angus, a 100 year-old industrial building that once was a manufacturing plant for railcars and the Valentine tanks for the Russian army during second world war. Now it houses tons of creative enterprises and on their beautiful atrium (where our show it's going to take place), seasonal fashion shows and markets. The atrium features amazing industrial details like steel columns, riveted steel beams, concrete floors and a super high ceilings.

Here are some of the photos I took! I hope you like this space as much as I do and don't forget to sign up for our mailing list to receive more details about Etsy: Made in Canada in Montreal! If you are an artist, maker or craft person in Montreal you must join our list as we'll be sending out the vendor call very soon! 

Outside of the building. The entrance is where those blue flags are.
Outside of the building, look at all those arches, steel beams and rivets! 
This is what you see when you enter the building.
I love the details of the steel columns. 
Looking up.

Thanks so much to Meli from the Montreal Etsy Team for scoring this beautiful venue for us and thanks so much to Technopole Angus for allowing us to plan and use your amazing atrium for our upcoming market!
