A Very Hammer-town Holiday
- Olga Kwak
- 01 Dec 2017
We’re so lucky here in Hamilton, you know? You could do all your holiday shopping online during Cyber Monday, or you could hit the mall during the biggest shopping season of the year, but why would you when there are so many incredible small businesses in our community that sell amazing Hamilton-made and products? Urbanicity is proud to present this year’s curated collection of holiday gifts for everyone on your list and we enlisted some of Hamilton’s nicest people to help us present them! Thank you to Kyle Andrew, Natalie Sexton, Lyndsay Boyd, Max Francis and his lovely daughter Gwen, little baby Ira, Brian Riddell, Matthew Surina, Mallory Sullivan, Max, and Buddha for your time, energy, and assistance in bringing these pictures to life. And we couldn’t have done it if we didn’t have shoot locations that rock – so thank you to the Beverly on Locke, Munchies Barkery on Upper Gage, and the old grey lady herself, Dundurn Castle for existing.
