It may be grey out there, but this week always turns out to be one of my favourites on account of the Culture Crawl. Chinatown’s Untitled Art Space is adding to the excitement by hosting Art & Accessories, a completely collaborative art show involving some of Vancouver’s top illustrators who’ve aligned with some damn cool local businesses to create custom apparel and accessories. Anticipate individually made items such as tote bags, make up bags, backpacks, scarves and socks, plus original artworks and limited edition prints.
