The grand reveal of our new location is getting closer!! As I had mentioned a little while back, we are relocating our studio to 169 Third Avenue, in the downtown core! We will be having our grand opening very soon!!! 🎺✨ You don’t want to miss this event 🧿
Special thank you to Dave Cote for being a tremendous help finding archival footage and taking the time to show me bits and pieces of Timmins’ history tucked away in the corners of the downtown. It was such a joy to put this together and immerse myself in the story of this not so little mining town 🌟🖤
We can’t wait to show you everything we’ve been doing to the new space!! Keep an eye on our page for more details.
