About Calico | Toronto Star article

CALICO IS OPEN EVERY SATURDAY

Calico is a new market space in the heart of Toronto that helps you shop with a social conscience.

Where? Calico is on the lower level of St. Lawrence Market (Jarvis and Front Street East)

When? Saturdays from September 2002. See the Calico market schedule

 

The recipe for Calico is simple:

1. take three dozen talented, energetic and culturally diverse entrepreneurs rising to the challenge of starting their own businesses
2. transform one unused space in St. Lawrence Market into a unique shopping environment
3. add hundreds of socially-conscious shoppers
4. change lives and break stereotypes
5. make everyone feel great about shopping at Calico

How? Calico receives funding from the Government of Canada's National Homelessness Initiative through the City of Toronto, and is sponsored by Citibank. A network of partners, including Dixon Hall, the Toronto CED Learning Network and a number of other social agencies have provided dynamic support, advice and assistance. However, Calico would be nothing without the men and women whose creativity, energy and persistence is the essential strength of the market - the Calico traders.
