Introducing the Akin Winter Art Map!
To add some warmth to these frosty months, we want to encourage you to shop local and support the arts! Akin has created the Akin Winter Art Map, a guide connecting shoppers to local artists, makers, shops and craft markets.
We reached out to our studio members to see what they’re making, and where they’re shopping this winter, and the Akin Winter Art Map is the result!
You can scroll through the map to view lists of local artists with goodies available for purchase this winter season. Shopping on a budget? No problem, we’ve highlighted goods from every price range. We’ve also highlighted some fantastic local shops which sell handmade gifts, and upcoming craft markets that are not to be missed!
Supporting local artists and makers has never been so important, and this winter season, we’re bringing it all to you! Click here to view the Akin map and stay tuned throughout the month of December as we highlight more fantastic Akin makers and their wonderful creative work.
A huge thank you to all the Akin members who contributed to the building of this map, and to all our fantastic community members. We wish you a safe, cozy and creative winter!
Want to celebrate in-person?
Akin will be hosting a 15th Anniversary drop-in celebration at Akin’s Remote Gallery on Tuesday December 5 from 4-8pm for an evening filled with Akin memorabilia and nostalgia.
