Labour Day Mask

As labour day approaches, we are excited to offer our union community a line of merchandise that celebrates the labour movement and its members. The designs, created by a unionized VALU artist, are designed to share our mandate and honour the gains we’ve made for better working conditions and pay. We are proud to be celebrating labour day and are offering bulk discounts to Unions and other friendly organizations!

The "Labour is Entitled to all it Creates" design was created by Shira Anisman, a local artist, illustrator, and worker/owner of VALU CO-OP.

For local pick ups, you will be notified when your order is ready to go, please wait until you receive your notification before scheduling a time to drop by the studio.

VALUe #10 — We aim to source materials and supplies produced through ethical labour practices, and which uphold environmentally sustainable practices.

Our masks are sourced from the Vancouver Sewing Labour Union Cooperative, our unionized partner coop. They are then printed at VALU CO-OP's Chinatown Studio by unionized printers. 

Masks are triple layered with two cotton faces and a melt-blown polyester interfacing to stop particle transmission. The mask itself (aka The Gigi Mask) is designed to be worn comfortably for long periods of time. They are durable and easily washable. We recommend a machine wash and line dry. Measurement specifications may fluctuate slightly. Every mask is made to order and produced locally by hand, so it's fair to expect a slower turnaround, but we try our best to deliver products in a timely manner.
