Weekend Itinerary June 2nd & 3rd

Le Marché has experienced what was perhaps, its most vibrant and memorable month so far, as there were many events taking place almost every week. Our team and family has had so much fun, but all good things must come to a close in time. This Saturday and Sunday we will be hosting the last weekend of our spring pop-up shop in the upstairs Live @ Marché space, and the annual Heritage House Tour presented by the Vancouver Heritage Foundation will be stopping by our store on Sunday, June 3rd.

We hope to see you this weekend. For more information about the pop-up shop or about the Heritage House Tour please visit these links.

Event Coverage: Le Marché St. George Spring Pop-up Shop Opening

The day before yesterday, I got to come in and snap a few behind-the-scenes photos of the products that would be featured in our spring pop-up. When I arrived to shoot the opening of the actual event, my jaws dropped at the sheer beauty that was curated wherever my eyes looked. Everything fits together elegantly. Janaki worried that the order of hand-woven baskets by Doug Johnston would be delayed, yet even they serendipitously arrived on time. By the time we were done with yesterday's shoot, I had to have one of Mr. Johnston's pieces. We're the first retailer to carry them in Canada. It would be a shame not to add such a wonderful work to my home. The right things happening at the right time is a common blessing that everyone at Le Marché St. George never takes for granted.

Friends: Butter on the Endive & Blue Owl - Chef In Residence N° 02

Our friends at Blue Owl Home Boutique are set to collaborate on a second installment of Butter on The Endive's Chef in Residence series. Amanda Michas has an exceptional eye for hand-picking beautiful items and is a serious talent for whimsical arrangements. Chef Owen Lightly is a undeniable force within Vancouver's culinary scene and is bringing along Adam Chandler of Beta 5 Chocolates as well as James Town of Mikuni Wild Harvest for their event. The gentlemen behind our Puglian dinner series and the most amazing tasting olive oil to hit our lips will be on hand to treat guests to an olive oil tasting and acoustic serenade. For more details about the event, please visit here. While this event isn't taking place under our roof we are already salivating over the preview of their menu, and the beautiful suite in the Connaught building will surely make their event one to remember!

PS: All merchandise at Blue Owl Home Boutique will be 15% off for the weekend.

Preview: Le Marché St. George Spring Pop-up Shop May 24th

Two days from now we will once again be opening our doors and inviting you to get your hands on new handmade goods to welcome spring with. Janaki has outdone herself in finding the most amazing items, locally and from across the globe, for the pop-up's inventory: handmade wool animals, embroidered textiles from Mexico, inspired handmade baskets from Brooklyn, New York's Doug Johnston, a new fleet of Turkish towels, Patricia Larsen's line of garments and jewellery, and new ceramics from Janaki.

Seasonal pop-ups are looking like a new tradition at Marché and we are truly looking forward to each and every one.

Closed: Victoria Day Monday May 21st

Just as a reminder we're closed Holiday Mondays. Everything will be back to normal on Tuesday. We hope everyone enjoys their Victoria Day!
