The sparkle of the season takes on a special shine each year at The Avenue Gallery as it raises funds for Victoria Hospice.
The ninth annual All That Glitters showcases stunning, wearable art created by Canadian boutique jewelers. A percentage from the sale of each item is donated to Victoria Hospice which is 50 per cent funded by donations.
Victoria Hospice began as a grassroots movement called the Victoria Association for Care of the Dying in 1978.
Today, the organization supports families through the caring of loved ones facing life-limiting illnesses, including grief and bereavement support by counsellors and trained volunteers, and conducts more than 1,500 home visits a year.
