Wear with Pride

by

We’ve created new enamel pins to show our support for LGBTQ2S members within and outside of our community! Designed by Erin Minuskin and illustrated by Gracia Lam, this collaboration has our usual spotty Good Gorilla banana peeled back to reveal a rainbow.

Furthermore, 50% of the proceeds from these pins will be donated to PFLAG CANADA. We, as a community believe in celebrating and supporting LGBTQ2S people of all ages, races, and abilities.

Limited Edition of only 100.

Purchase them at our online store!

We Have More ROOM

Members asked we delivered. Another new ROOM phone booth was added to our main space, and it’s been put to good use! Soundproof and well-ventilated, it’s the perfect spot for private calls, podcasting, recordings, or getting away from your desk. It’s first-come, first-serve but luckily with two phone booths, there’s almost no waiting time — just another perk of our co-working space.

Make sure to stop by Good Gorilla for a tour and experience it yourself! When you come to see the space, you are welcome to stay for the day.

Welcoming our Community Managers

Good Gorilla is very pleased to announce that we have two new Community Managers, Abby Ho and George Dover!

Abby previously was a member here with Project 40 Collective and is a visual artist/community arts organizer. While George is an aspiring comedian/writer working on a podcast/webcomic project. He use to run Rover’s Dog Walking Tests out of the Good Gorilla Space.

Since joining us less than a month ago, they have been adapting into our community with full speed. Thanks for giving them the warmest smile while welcoming George and Abby to the jungle!

A Message from the Gorillas

It has been a little over a year since we’ve doubled the square footage of the space. Once we tore down the wall of the old meeting room, there was an instant growth of amazing individuals (and dogs) from various industries. New-comers were welcomed with open arms. Former members came back with stories and treats of their travels. Ideas were exchanged. We’ve observed several collaborations take place while creating new opportunities in this shared-economy.

We are excited for the new year. We will be having new community managers enroll in the first quarter. We will also have a design intern join us to keep the space a welcomed, well-designed creative space for you!

Our goal has always been to create an environment for creatives to create their best work. Everyone in and around our space has contributed to this.

Members come and go, but the relationships we have built in the last three years are timeless. This community is built on friendship, kindness, support, and feedback. It is our privilege to be part of this ever growing family.

We hope you pass some lovely holidays, refresh, and come back for another exciting year.

Elissa, Gracia, Kassem, and Hugh
