MoMA Modern Playhouse (http://shop NULL.dandelionkids NULL.ca/index NULL.php?search=moma)
We’ve been waiting for this forever! Not just for kids. Actually, it’s probably more geared towards adults and disguised as a child’s toy. Makes the perfect gift for yourself, husband, wife or that friend who has everything. Create a delightfully modern house with this innovative set of modular nesting boxes! Aspiring architects and designers of all ages can create modern spaces, arrange furniture and accessories, and pack it all up to go with this distinctive house!
Includes: 6 nesting boxes, 8 mix-and-match furniture pieces, 12 removable vinyl clings, and endless possibilities!
And you can populate the house with the MoMA Modern Play Family! The hip press-out family includes 5 people, a cat, a dog, a doghouse, and over 150 mix-and-match vinyl cling clothes! Now that’s a completely modern experience.

Eastside Culture Crawl this weekend
Wednesday, November 18th, 2009
The Eastside Culture Crawl is a longstanding tradition, and a must-do event on the calendars of Vancouver’s Arts Community. This is the 13th year running, and it’s looking to be as great as always. It starts Friday (5pm-10pm), and runs through to Sunday (11am-6pm both Sat & Sun), so try to make some time to get out and support the Arts. The event is FREE.
You can learn everything that you need to about this year’s Crawl at their website www.eastsideculturecrawl.com (http://www NULL.eastsideculturecrawl NULL.com/).

Family FUSE Weekend – Green World
November 21 & 22, 2009

This Family FUSE Weekend explores the Green World: from a sense of awe and wonder with nature to the human desire to shape and change our environment.
Explore a magical forest through collaborative drawing, create an animation or sound work, witness dance performances or even encounter Big Foot. This Family Fuse Weekend will address everything from ecological concerns to the mythical world around us, giving the entire family new ways to think about the Green World.

Hooray Hooray! Collage Collage!
Wednesday, September 9th, 2009
We are so pleased that our lovely friend Erin has realized her dream! Her new retail shop and workshop space, Collage Collage (http://www NULL.collagecollage NULL.ca), opening on Saturday, September 12 (Join the party from 1-4 in the afternoon!) in East Vancouver, is light-filled and airy. A perfect space for everyone who would like to engage with the arts, find inspiration and explore contemporary works through workshops and classes. A long wooden table dominates the space, inviting creativity and collaboration. It is a place to find some art supplies, a story book, a small sculpture or a new pair of scissors – and that hardest to find of necessary art items – a good pencil sharpener!
We have had the pleasure of having Erin lead a Halloween-based craft workshop at dandelion KIDS that was enjoyed by all, the results of which made up one of our most beautiful and spooky window displays! And long ago, when he was in preschool, Stefanie’s son Jasper, was seriously enamored of Erin after she led several art classes. Her education in the fine arts and her gentle approach will ensure that participants of her workshops will be inspired to create and learn, over and over again.
We can’t wait to sign up!
