Visit the Craft Ontario Shop for a collection of hand-built ceramic sculpture by Vanesa Trillia, on display in the Feature Window from June 21 to July 21, 2024.

In the series “Expressions from the land within” Trillia’s sculptures, like letters from some unknown alphabet, have a life of their own.

Join us on JULY 16, 6-8PM @ 9 Gristmill Lane for the opening celebration of the Craft Ontario Distillery Shop!

You may have noticed that we branched out to the East end - Craft Ontario has opened a new satellite Shop and programming location in The Distillery District, located next to Dish Gallery + Studio! 

Craft Ontario is proud to highlight the craftsmanship and artistry of Pasha Moezzi, a jewellery artist residing in Toronto. He obtained his Fine Arts diploma from Langara College (Vancouver) and later completed his BFA in Design Arts at Concordia University (Montreal).

His true passion for jewellery emerged while working at his father’s furniture-making workshop, where he made jewellery out of scrap metal. He then pursued goldsmith training at George Brown College where he graduated from the Jewellery Arts program in 2015.

The full interview will be on our updated website!

The theme for this issue of Studio is “Definition,” and rather than attempt to assign meaning to craft or determine what it could be, we are most interested in the demarcations, distinctions and clarifications of craft. To that end, the articles in this issue reflect these explorations. Find out more: www.studiomagazine.ca

Reception: Saturday, August 24, 2024 from 2-4pm

Led by Heidi McKenzie, this two-part workshop will focus on sourcing grants, demystify the different levels/types of granting from the Canada Council, regional and municipal granters. The second part of the workshop will focus more on writing tips and we will analyze examples of grants, what's good what's not, through case studies and writing samples with practical advice on writing "good proposals" that improve your chances of receiving grants.
