A new spirit has arrived in downtown Antigonish. It’s called Aphrodite, an Odyssey of Art & Fashion. This 2500 square foot boutique and gallery at 292 Main Street is situated in what is known in town as the white house – an historic building reputed as the second oldest house in town. Main Street is now home to this innovative clothing store aimed at the professional woman – filling a long time void in the region.
Aphrodite carries over 30 distinctive lines of clothing chosen for women of all ages and sizes featuring designers from across Canada and Europe.
Atlantic Canada is home to many talented artisans from which some outstanding jewellery designers have been chosen to showcase their work in a specially designed gallery.
Aphrodite embraces a lifestyle concept that extends to fine craft such as blown glass, handpainted pottery and sculptural woodwork that is exquisitely displayed in the conservatory of its splendid home. This leads to the fine art gallery that features wonderful paintings made by emerging and professional artists. The end result is an original space full of unpredictable creativity that delights the eye and the soul.
There’s much more to come on this site. In the meantime please visit our Facebook Page for lots of up to date photos and comments: http://www.facebook.com/AphroditeArtandFashion
APHRODITE 
Congratulations to you all – this is a lovely venue in which to display the many beautiful fashions and art. I will be back.
[…] to Tiiu Poder of Aphrodite Art and Fashion for taking our portrait when she came to visit Brad to acquire some of his fabulous work for her new […]
Thank you so very much to Tilu for her special attention she extends to each person. I can provide personal testimonial , telling you if you would appreciate being able to find that special something to wear to a important function or just looking to treat yourself to that little something to brighten your day, Tilu is there to provide her expert assistance.
After suffering a long term disability I had pretty much given up on trying to go shopping for myself. That was until I entered Aphrodite! Tilu gives her personal attention and makes you feel as though you have a personal fashion consultant and a best friend’s honest opinion. It takes a special talent to achieve being able to have everyone leave with that feeling.
I extend my personal gratitude for making me feel like I mattered. She lifted my spirits, treated me wonderfully, all while assisting me to find an outfit that made me feel and look like a special lady. When living with the veil of chronic pain as your under garment of life, this is not an easy accomplishment. So Tilu, I extend my deepest gratitude.
Do not live in Antigonish but was born there….looking for a ceramic pendant with a Keltic knot design,,, also a cross with same…Can you help?
Thanks very much, Doreen McKIllop
