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, bags, stationery, and home and body products.

Toque is all about goodwill, community, and fostering sustainability for artists and artist-run culture in Vancouver. The participating vendors generously donated 30% of all sales to support Western Front’s artistic program.

Participating vendors included Contexture Design, Anna De Courcy, doodlepuffy, Fern Designs, Sarah Edmonds, Colleen Heslin, Hob Snobs, Mother Flockers, Kajola Morewood, lovelydesign, Gailan Ngan, Emilie O’Brien, Open Cupboards, Parade Around, Refine Design, Simply Read Books, Erin Templeton, and Allee Wells.

Western Front is a non-profit artist-run centre in Vancouver.

We acknowledge the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and səl̓ílwətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations as traditional owners of the land upon which Western Front stands.
