SURPRISE ……. EVERYONE WITH
WINTER 2021
www.greenforestgallery.ca Shop Local and Canadian Made This Holiday Season
Join us this holiday season, for a winter-warm-up series of holiday shopping events, live musical performances and artist workshops. By shopping at the Green Forest Gallery, you are supporting local artists, musicians and Canadian makers. While shopping for hidden gems, you might be happy to know that you are making a difference for someone in need. For the month of December, The Green Forest Gallery will be donating 10% of all sales from Box of Paints to the Manna Foodbank in Bracebridge. We will raise money to assist families who need our help with putting food on the table this holiday season. Spreading joy by shopping locally is the best gift for 2021!
