An Interview with The Vintage Seeker Kristina Urquhart

An Interview with The Vintage Seeker Kristina Urquhart

" Five years ago, Milway was six weeks postpartum but determined not to miss her favourite vintage event of the year. So she loaded her husband, daughter and newborn son into the car for a day’s worth of driving from their home in Nova Scotia up to Prince Edward Island for the 70-Mile Coastal Yard Sale, a two-day festival that sees more than 150 vendors set up along a 110-kilometre stretch of the southeastern island.

“I had a newborn baby, and I was like, I don’t care, I’m not missing it!” she says, laughing.

Milway’s goal is to spread that vintage-loving joy to the masses — that’s one of the reasons why she co-founded The Curio Collective, a popular vintage market in Halifax, N.S. that returns for the 2022 season on May 21-22 at the former World Trade and Convention Centre on Argyle Street."
