Description:

Toque Craft Fair is an annual community event and fundraiser hosted by Western Front. It showcases a curated selection of British Columbia-based artists, craftspeople, and designers who make textiles, ceramics, jewellery, accessories, stationery, and home and body products. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Toque took the form of a vibrant online marketplace where shoppers could virtually browse and buy a curated selection of goods. 

Toque is all about goodwill, community, and fostering sustainability for artists and artist-run culture in Vancouver. The participating artists, craftspeople, and designers generously donated 20% of all sales to support Western Front’s artistic program.
