The Less We Get Together The Happier We'll Be

Posted by Erin Boniferro on

Greetings Collage Collage Families and Friends,

I'm so impressed with your support already during these strange and uncertain times. We've done our best this weekend with following guidelines presented to us by the City and by the Province. In order to continue to keep everyone's best health in mind we've made a few changes to our programming for the coming weeks. We thank you in advance for your understanding, as so many families already have demonstrated empathy and support for me as a small business owner and mother. I'm doing my best for my clients, my staff and my family.

As of today, the shop will be open from 11-1pm tomorrow, and then close for our camp in the back. I shall post additional hours for the coming week tomorrow, and offer pick up times for online orders. Our online store remains open and we shall add new kits and pick up times as we make them.

SPRING BREAK - If you are a Spring Break Registered Family, you've got an email from me outlining our remote camps + how to pick up materials. Everyone else - we're working on getting you access to at home projects asap.

Mini Make Classes - for the next 2 weeks, Mini Make Classes will be offered via Instagram Stories/You Tube Link. You'll also be able to pick up materials for the next 3 weeks of classes as of 12:00pm on Tuesday March 17th. These supplies, along with the videos will recreate the classes for you to do together on your own time from home. If this offering doesn't work for you we're happy to offer a store credit of 2 Open Studio Project of the Week Sessions to be used at anytime.

DROP IN CLASSES - Drop In Classes will be cancelled until further notice. We think it's best to protect one another by cancelling the Wednesday and Friday Drop In Classes until we know for certain that we aren't putting one another at risk. We will OF COURSE honour your classes by way of Open Studio or future session credits once we know it's a better time to gather together in the name of arts and crafts.

You've all show such wonderful support for the shop thus far, I thank you again for your understanding, from changing birthday party dates to happily taking credit for another camp week this summer, you're all part of helping this small business stay afloat and healthy during these most unique times.

As my trusted clients and families I shall inform you the moment things change and that we can get back to our craft table together. In the meantime, I'm working diligently to get packages and projects to EVERYONE who would like to bring some Collage Collage goodness into their homes in the coming weeks.

Current Changes for SPRING

SPRING BREAK - Remote Learning Packages Available for Pick Up Monday or Tuesday March 16th & 17th at 1:00pm

Mini Make - Remote Learning Packages and Videos available for pick up as of Tuesday at 1:00pm for Monday, Tuesday and Saturday March/April Sessions

Drop In Classes - Cancelled until further notice

Please call or email us with any questions or concerns, and visit our online shop for new at home kits as we make them!
Yours in hand washing, curve flattening and crafting from home,
