Update on our old space

Hello everyone.
No, this isn't an April Fool's joke. You can now see directly though our old building. It is official - we will not be moving back into the old space. But really, we are interested in making lemonades out of lemons! We are ready to move on! Thanks to eveyone who has signed up for our mailing list already; we are getting really excited about our new opening. We are planning exciting new collaborations with Emily Carr students in the near future, and things are getting back to normal. (Despite the, ahem, snowfall this morning)

Join our mailing list!
Hello everyone,
Everyday we have people coming into the Net Loft with questions about our future plans. We are excited to let everyone know that we will be moving into a new home in Railspur Alley in the very near future, and that we have a retail designer who is going to make it look fabulous. (It is all very exciting!) If you would like to join our mailing list to get an official invite to our opening party, please email us and let us know at:

Net Loft is a go!
Our new temporary home (aka Cynthia's Wood Co-op Annex) is up and running, and it looks beautiful! Although it is quite small, we have managed to squeeze in a lot of work. We are open in the Net Loft from 10:00-7:00 everyday, so come down and see how it looks. There have been many customers breathing a sigh of relief when they find that we are still operating.
We hope to see you there soon!

The Collapsed-Roof Sale!
As some of you may already know, The Wood Co-op Gallery has gone through some drastic changes in the past month. After the heavy snowfall this past winter, the roof of the parking lot attached to our building collapsed. Thankfully, no one was hurt and nothing was damaged. But as a result, we were asked to vacate within 72 hours and have now moved into a temporary storage space in Railspur Alley (also located on Granville Island). We have also set up a small shop in the Net Loft, located across the street from where our Gallery used to be. We are very thankful to have the space, however, it is considerably smaller than what we are accustomed to. Most of the furniture and other larger items are unable to fit.
As a result, we have come up with a great idea: The Collapsed-Roof Sale! For three days only we will be offering 25% off on furniture and more. This is really a one-time only opportunity, as we have never held a sale before and probably never will again! This is a great time to come out and see our heirloom-quality tables, cabinets, wall hangings and more – all at the lowest prices we have ever offered.
On February 27th - March 1st we will be holding our sale in our Railspur Alley storage space, located at 1494-1 Old Bridge Street on Granville Island. We would like to take this opportunity to invite you to come and check it out! We will have the doors open, music playing, treats, and possibly even some balloons!
This is a great chance to not only support local artisans but to also ask the staff any questions you may have about our future plans with the Gallery. We are hoping to engage with the local community by making this a fun and informative event. Most importantly, we want to insure that our artisans get the support they need.
We hope to see you there!
