Faire Magazine Issue Seven

In today’s world of social media, creative work can happily reach a global audience, but many artists find it creatively debilitating. Work is reduced to “content,” and everything becomes ephemeral and forgettable. We never truly see past the perfect frame or scratch the surface of what makes our favourite creatives tick.

FAIRE wanted to create something joyfully physical, something to be treasured, a magazine you take your time to read and return to in moments of reflection.

Creativity can take on so many forms. Powerful, physical work made by hand, vessels that carry an artist’s thoughts and dreams. It can also be seen in how we create a home, tend our gardens, or set the table for friends coming over for dinner. Creativity is at work when we are positive catalysts for change within our community, when we find ways to share our knowledge and create learning opportunities to help others soar.

FAIRE is committed to building a creative community on and off the page while opening up opportunities for collaboration and skill sharing.
