The Solstice Market will focus on handcrafted goods from local witchy artists and craftspeople. We hope to shine the spotlight on lesser known artists/crafters, and will aim to carry a wide variety of products at a wide variety of price points.
75% of the profits return directly to the artists/crafters.
We will also have refreshments for sale--the hot apple cider is back! There will also be a some more surprises announced as we approach the date.
Purchases can be made by cash or credit card (no debit, unfortunately).
Come shop and hang out in the space with your friends and loved ones, revel in each other's good company and celebrate the Solstice season.

This event takes place on the ancestral, traditional, and unceded homelands of the Musqueam, Skxwú7mesh, and Tsleil-Waututh peoples. Unceded means that this land was never surrendered, relinquished or handed over in any way. As we organize, we also remember the historical and ongoing colonial genocide against Indigenous peoples that make it possible for us to be here as settlers.
Originally wanted to find a way to give back to the people of these local communities. However, due to the military violence, lack of resources, and immediate needs of the peaceful protesters at Standing Rock in North Dakota, we have decided to send them 10% of the profits of all Radical Spirits Merchandise sold.

We will also have a donation box at the till if you wish to donate.
