Aside from our annual official Whale Festival poster, we try our mighty best to offer a variety of merchandise to help us boost our fundraising cushion to keep the Festival coming back year after year. We're really proud of our collection of well-thought-out and locally designed & produced items. It's a small collection of t-shirts, hoodies, bumper stickers and hand crocheted tuques that for 2010 will appear at select events throughout the Festival, as well as a limited selection at the Pacific Rim Visitor Centre (at the Pacific Rim Hwy junction) and at the Media Lounge (ongoing event in Tofino).
Did you catch that? Merchandise will be available in limited supply at:
- Select events throughout the Whale Festival.
- At the Media Lounge ongoing event - in The Shore building in Tofino - beside Ocean Outfitters at 368 Main Street.
- In very limited supply at the Pacific Rim Visitor Centre.
Purchase Whale Fest merchandise and support the environment too! We've chosen clothing that has alternative fibres, such as recycled polyester and bamboo and then printed them locally using water-based inks (and lots of love). The handmade tuques in this year's line are made in and around Ucluelet with a personalized tag to tell you where creator Toni Buston got her stitch on!
A happy earth = happy whales and very happy people.
Special thanks to the local design capabilities of Pina Studio & Boutique (Angie Roussin), Sarah Timberlake, and Toukee (Toni Buston).
