Events.To.Support: *Smart.Design.Mart

The second edition of *Smart Design Mart is taking place this weekend in Montreal. *Smart Design Mart is a modern design market open to the public, displaying a mix of emerging talents and seasoned creators in the design field-from clothing to furniture, art and jewelery and much more.

Take a look at their official posters below for more information:

Here's a small excerpt taken from their official facebook page describing the event: "Set in the industrial setting of a 20 000 square foot garment industry loft (now empty) each designer and artist has been hand picked by the smart design mart curators and has been asked to create a mini boutique within the space. Aisles will be roomy, food and drink will be served and music will be drifting, creating the perfect exciting yet comfortable shopping event. Montreal’s own EN MASSE (enmasse.info) art collective has been invited to create a live art installation, giving shoppers a moment to recharge, have a drink and enjoy the art."

Its a great way to promote local talents and for the public to get to know and support them. Right in time for Christmas, this is a great way to shop and get cool gifts while supporting our emerging design field without the hassle of the typical hectic Christmas mall shoppers.
