Local Artists Design Cups For Responsible Coffee Initiatives


Tonight at The Mascot! Come view and bid on cup creations by local artists including Greenhouse Gallery contributing artists Kathryn MacNaughton, Justyna Werbel, Mahmood Popal and Lauren Pirie. Proceeds support Grounds For Health initiatives in coffee growing countries. "Their award winning work is not only saving the lives of hundreds of women every year from a prevalent yet easy to detect and treat form of cancer, but it is helping reshape the way gender equality is looked at in the communities they work in". 

The event is the third annual run by First Drop Canada. It also highlights simple actions of environmental responsibility, like using your own reusable mug and hence, One Less Paper Cup!

Tonight 8pm - Midnight
1267 Queen St.
