Last year, the Edge Lifestyles Show took place at the TransCanada Centre in Île-des-Chênes from October 23–25. This year, the show is getting a new name, a new date, and an updated concept. The Southeast Lifestyles Expo will take place a week later, on November 3–5.
The event is partnering with the RM of Ritchot and the Ritchot Chamber of Commerce. Lesley Gaudry and Amber Mamchuk will head up a series of workshops, as well as panel discussions with experts of topics relating to the home, health, and hobbies.
The upstairs level of the TransCanada Centre will be transformed into a craft market for local artists and craftspeople to showcase their products. A single artist’s booth will cost $99 for the full weekend.
Organizer John Falk notes that the change of date brings the show closer to Christmas. “Lots of unique products make great gifts and you’re supporting local businesses,” Falk says.
Many exhibitors have already signed up for booths, including Heritage Lane Builders, The Clarence Braun & Wesley Dowse Team, Ferrum Fitness, Capo Coffee Lounge, Salon 421, Norwex, and Sue’s Photography.
The Citizen is proud to be the presenting sponsor of the 2017 Southeast Lifestyles Expo.
