La Cagiboutique

The Cagiboutique is the Cagibi’s art shop and bookstore. Born in the fall of 2020, The Cagiboutique was created to support artists’ needs for a physical selling space and of the Cagibi’s need to diversify its activities during the pandemic. This is a queer initiative with the purpose of offering its space to exclusively queer and trans artists and artisans. It works with a consignment system and puts forward original creations by local artists. There, you will find jewelry, notebooks, t-shirts, prints and artwork, artisanal candles, ceramics, tons of stickers, ropes and kinky gear, zines and other books (mostly self-publications), created by about 30 amazing artists all of which are quality products, often handmade, DIY and unique.

The Cagiboutique also organizes pop-up markets with our artists and other events relating to our mission, which are always announced on our social media.

Thank you for helping us highlight queer and trans imagination in Tiohtià:ke (Montréal), and for supporting artists in our community and our collective projects!


Are you a queer/trans artist who would like to join our shop? Contact us at cagiboutique@gmail.com with a picture and a description of your project and we will send you more information about how we function and the space!

Luddite Candles

Luddite candles are made in Tiohtià’ke from what I call auld wax, meaning they are made from recycled material. I collect wax from around the city, and with dainty gay hands I transform those leftovers into brand new candles to enjoy. They are “full drip” for dramatic effect, made intention and astrology awareness. You can leave wax for them at le Cagibi!

Lovestruck Prints

Lovestruck prints is a brand created by Illustrator Geneviève Darling. The driving topics for her illustrations are softness, connectedness, queerness, and cats! They create images of tenderness that are meant to be relatable, comforting, and validating while challenging heteronormative views of our society. Elements of nature are an important part of her imagery as a reminder of our belonging in the natural world and as a reflection of the deepest movements that inhabit us.
