New Edition Of The Always Odd “Miracle And Connelly Calendar” Released

brick-press1

If you have the 2013 edition of the locally produced and always odd Miracle & Connelly Calendar on your wall, you’re likely making arrangements to secure the new one. If you’ve seen a copy of one of these hand-inscribed calendars hanging on a friend’s wall, you’ve probably wanted one. If you’ve never seen or heard of it, trust us, you want one! 2013’s legendary calendar – the strangest yet – came complete with 12 months stuffed with all manner of horrible and wonderful days (eg. October 22nd was Silverfish Awareness Day), and we don’t doubt that 2014’s will be just as weirdly memorable. 

They’re $20.14 each, 3 for $50, or 5 for $80. Email us [at] miracleandconnellypresents.com to lock down a copy. The calendars will be available at two launches this week: Thursday, November 28 (7pm – late) at the Dunlevy Snackbar in Strathcona and Friday, November 29 (9:30pm) at Solders & Sons (247 Main Street).
