FIRST PICK : Sip and Shop at the WINTER BAZAAR
Friday, November 28, 2025, 1600 - 2130
This special night is an opportunity to be the FIRST to shop from your favourite artists with friends.
Thoughtfully curated, this market breaks the frame of standard local craft fairs. It's that time of year again! Winter Bazaar - an enchanting gathering of artists from across BC and Alberta. Explore a multitude of skilled artists, food creatives and whimsical fun across two floors of this stunning Gorge Park Pavilion inspired by Japanese architecture nestled in North America's oldest Japanese gardens.
This year's Winter Bazaar features a myriad of award winning artists from near and far. Rarely seen artists join us from Calgary, Edmonton, Kimberly, Nelson and Vancouver. From magnolia wood-turned bowls to fire blown whiskey glasses. Spray paint stencil art to soft handmade angora bunnies. Metallic statement leather bags to elegant hand woven shawls, quilted hip sacks to sheer black dresses, Pokémon bath bombs to grey and pink sapphire gemstone rings. Scrumptious matcha chocolate bars dotted with freeze dried strawberries to colourful crystal lamps, tarot readings and local quince jellies. Enjoy Baked Alaska while shopping for Indigenous birch earrings, linen lino printed sea monster tea towels, locally authored graphic novels, cuteness Asian culture ceramics and natural pigment pastels. Try some honey from a tiny farm in Fernwood or sample award winning spirits from Cobble Hill. Shop from your forever favourites or discover new ones to fall in love with!
