The Canvas SEAPORT

Unfor­tu­na­tely The Can­vas By Que­ren­cia in Ant­werp shut their doors for now. The good news is that The Can­vas By Que­ren­cia still has two mar­ket pla­ces in New York City. One in Williams­burg, Brooklyn and one in Bowery, Manhatten.

The Can­vas Williams­burg is the flagship sto­re of The Can­vas By Que­ren­cia and is a mar­ket­pla­ce for inter­na­tio­nal brands addres­sing the Uni­ted Natio­n’s Sus­tai­na­ble Deve­lop­ment Goals. The sto­re is loca­ted in a 4,000 squa­re-foot reno­va­ted warehou­se in Brooklyn and has a pri­me loca­tion on one of the busiest streets. 

The Can­vas’ dedi­ca­tion to sus­tai­na­bi­lity fuels their pro­ject. Their site reuni­tes brands from all over the world that spe­cia­li­se in slow, ethi­cal, socially and envi­ron­men­tally cons­cious fashion. The­se brands have to outli­ne how their brand is hel­ping further the cau­se of the UN’s 17 Sus­tai­na­ble Deve­lop­ment Goals to be admit­ted to the Can­vas mar­ket­pla­ce and shops. 

The Can­vas foun­ders feel par­ti­cu­larly strongly about the 17^th SDG which says part­nerships and coope­ra­tion are vital to the achie­ve­ment of their goals. This runs in The Can­vas’ blood as their suc­cess relies on all par­ties wor­king together. 

Head to The Can­vas and wit­ness the futu­re of fashion and retail! Embra­cing the vibrant cul­tu­re of Brooklyn, NY, the Williams­burg loca­tion also hosts con­certs, art exhi­bi­tions, expert lead clas­ses, and more.
