Milton Culture Days Sponsor Week – Sapphire Dental

For the second year in a row, Sapphire Dental Centre Milton has jumped on board to sponsor Milton Culture Days hosted by Arts Milton.

The husband and wife team behind Sapphire Dental (located at the intersection of Steeles and Ontario Streets in Milton) are a gentle, professional couple who put patients first. All ages are welcome at Sapphire and the team there takes extra special care with those who have dental phobias.

We can’t thank Sapphire Dental enough for their generous continued support of Milton’s largest arts and culture festival!

 

 

Milton Culture Days Sponsor Week – Printd

Today we want to thank Printd in downtown Milton for their very generous printing of the 2019 Milton Culture Days Activity Sheets. These activity lists are an integral part of the Culture Days event in Milton. With so many programs and presentations happening in one building (we’re up to 80 activities this year!), it can be overwhelming for visitors to know what’s happening in which spaces.

When attendees arrive they are handed a beautiful colour copy sheet which concisely lists exactly what is happening that morning of afternoon. Easy peasy, and so much fun!

See below for the 2019 sheets and plan your weekend now!

 

Milton Culture Days Sponsor Week – Once Upon A Child Milton

For the second year in a row, Once Upon A Child Milton is showing their community support through sponsorship of Milton Culture Days. With OUAC’s financial donation Arts Milton is able to reach a larger demographic of families.

At Once Upon A Child you can sell items and turn your gently used children’s clothes, shoes, and toys into cash. You can also shop for clothing and more. You’ll find a huge selection of gently used kid’s clothes, toys, and baby gear at up to 70% off retail prices.

A big thank-you to Ian and Colleen at Once Upon A Child Milton!

Milton Culture Days Sponsor Week: MyFM

Arts Milton was thrilled when the MyFM team came to town and opened up shop at 103.1 FM. The station keeps Miltonians up to date on local news, sports, weather, traffic between great, family friendly hits from yesterday and today. Plus they offer amazing chances to WIN contests/giveaways.
