Side Street Studio Opens their New Store of Canadian Art

Side Street Studio Opens their New Store

On the 1st May Side Street Studio will be opening their new store in downtown Victoria, British Columbia. The new location is on Humboldt Street and lies directly opposite the Marriot Hotel and close to most of the major Hotels and Guest House’s of Victoria.

For over 25 years Side Street Studio has been located in Oak Bay and now with the growing demand for hand crafted local artists & artisans work a second and larger store will open. Much of our business has been and will continue to be for local people. But when visitors come to B.C. they often want to buy something that is unique and hand made in B.C. Not made in an anonymous factory in some far off country.

“This new and larger studio will allow us to include and show more of the magnificent work that is created here in British Columbia” says owner Sue Hayes. “The province is home to a huge wealth of artistic talent and Side Street is proud to be representing some of the very best that can be found”.

“Currently the studio represents over 265 B.C. artists work and we hope to increase this to around 300 by the end of this year”.

Unique and original, Jewellery, Pottery, Woodturnings, Glass, Textiles, Carvings, Greeting Cards and West Coast Art; all hand crafted and one-of-a-kind.

There are new first nation artists as well as some fantastically talented Pottery, Jewelers and Stone Carvers.
Side Street has always focused on unique, locally crafted Gifts for all occasions; Birthdays, Anniversaries, Weddings, Housewarmings, Thank Yous, Romantic Events, the Family, the Hostess, Business Associates…and most importantly ‘For You’.

The hours of opening are 10.00 a.m. until 5.00 p.m. Monday to Saturday and 11.00 a.m. until 4.00 p.m. on Sunday and Bank Holidays.
