We are proud to announce that this is our 32nd anniversary at the One of a Kind Show, which is in it’s 38th year!

The One of a Kind Craft show has come a long way since it was held in the Queen Elizabeth and Automotive buildings. It is much bigger these days and still manages to be an intimate experience with the crafters and artists.

We really enjoy this show. Not only is a great opportunity to interact with our fans and customers, but we also get to reconnect with our fellow artisans.
