Hi everyone, Elise here.
I wish this was a happy update, but unfortunately it isn't.
I started Maker Hub earlier this year with the goal of creating an accepting artist and creator community, which I think we've achieved. You've welcomed our little studio in the Riverview community and showed us great support. Doing classes and workshops and sharing the joy of creating has been an amazing experience.
However, I find myself forced to make the difficult decision to close our doors due to my health. I was ready to tackle a lot of challenges when I opened the studio, but this is one that I did not see coming. We are a small team of two and it is not realistic to keep the studio going under the current circumstances.
Here's how things will go:
-I had emergency surgery last Friday so the studio will be closed this week while I recover.
-The sewing basics part 3 workshop that was supposed to take place tonight is postponed to Wednesday Oct 1st, participants were contacted by email already with all the details.
-We will be open our regular hours Saturday Sept 27 and Sunday Sept 28 and we will run our last two weekend workshop.
-We will be open our regular hours Wednesday Oct 1st to Friday Oct 3rd (10AM-5PM) to allow everyone to tie up any loose ends, pick up 3D printed projects, etc.
-We will be running a 50% off sale on all storefront items (craft kits and supplies). Excludes consignment goods. The sale will start this Saturday and run until our last day.
-Our last day open to the public will be Friday, Oct 3rd.
I am deeply thankful for all the support you have shown us. If you need to discuss anything with us please contact us by email at [email protected] or by phone at 1-506-378-2430
Thank you,
-Elise
