Check Out The Gailan Ngan Ceramics Sale In Strathcona This Weekend

Gailan Ngan michelle sproule for Scout Magazine

We love good ceramics. Great food can definitely show up to the table on take-out cardboard and still taste awesome, but when served on beautiful handmade plates the entire experience is elevated. In Vancouver we’re lucky to have some very talented artists who deliver on this score, and a particularly talented one of them, Gailan Ngan, is having a sale at her Strathcona studio this coming weekend. So Hustle down to Gailan’s East Georgia studio to buy some of her beautiful work at up to 40% off. Seconds will also be available. See you there!

Saturday, June 1 and Sunday, 2 | 12-4pm | 884 East Georgia Street | DETAILS
