Where: Artscape Youngplace, 180 Shaw St
What: Real Life TEST Etsy Newbie Bootcamp!

The Toronto Etsy Street Team (TEST) is teaming up with Camp Tech to bring their famed on-line Etsy Seller Newbie Bootcamp to real life! Ever considered selling your handmade goods, vintage finds or artist supplies on-line? Do you want to open your own Etsy shop?

As you probably know, Etsy is a huge, and ever-growing international marketplace for handmade goods, vintage items (over 20 years of age) and art and craft supplies. It is a way for artists, craftspeople and vintage sellers to reach a enormous audience and it is one of the simplest and easiest ways to start a small business and sell on-line. Etsy sellers include everyone from crafty people with full-time jobs in other fields, who need a creative outlet (and don't want their homes to be overflowing with their handmade items) to professional artists looking for another venue to sell their art. Listing your items on Etsy is an easy, affordable way of trying to earn some income from your creative endeavours and could into a very rewarding and possibly lucrative business.

Join us April 23rd at 7:00 pm at Artscape Youngplace (180 Shaw St) for a free Etsy Newbie Bootcamp workshop!
