Approaching the Holiday Season

Here are some photos of MNLCT staff enjoying a fun time as we welcome the next month with holiday spirit.
Welcome Home Benefit Concert
Experience a new genre of music! Support the Centre while enjoying music from up and coming Canadian musicians. Bring your friends and make a night of it! Indie-pop is well recognized in the Canadian music industry and this is a great opportunity for you, your family, and your friends, to become more familiar with Canadian culture.
Featuring local artists, The Fires Of with special guest Chad Price.
The concert will be on Saturday, November 17, 2018. Doors open at 8pm.

Holiday Arts & Crafts Marketplace
Winter is coming! That means the holidays are coming soon. Did you know that MNLCT will be having a Holiday Crafts & Food Marketplace again? That’s right!
Featuring 30+ local artisans over 2 floors and showcasing foods, baking, home decor, crafts, jewellery, health & beauty products, pet products, fashion accessories & more.
There will also be a silent auction that day (e.g. gift baskets, artwork, food items). At the silent auction table, you can bid on fabulous items donated by our generous sponsors.
The Marketplace is organized by Aurora House and the Mennonite New Life Centre of Toronto, and all proceeds will go towards programs and services for newcomers and people who have been trafficked in Canada.
Seeking a few more vendors! We’re looking to fill a few gaps in product offerings. If you have a unique food or craft product (sorry, jewellery, soap, and baking divisions are already full) please see our Holiday Crafts & Food Marketplace 2018 – Vendor Information Kit for show details and then send us an email.
Admission: Free Entry
