About

Cape Breton Centre for Craft & Design, located in beautiful Downtown Sydney, is a must-see during your visit to Cape Breton Island. 
The stunning Gallery Shop contains the work of over 90 Cape Breton artisans. Hundreds of unusual and one-of-a-kind items are on display and available for purchase.
