DeSerres Vaughan Mills closed; Peterborough location scheduled

It's just become a bit harder to get artist supplies, if you live in Brampton.

It seems that DeSerres at Vaughan Mills has closed, very quietly. A quick Google, filter to results in the last month, finds no reference to the store's wrap-up on any blogs or forums. A sign in the window indicates January 15 was their final day, and that a Peterborough location will be opened.

DeSerres does still have a location on the Mississauga/Oakville border, and some in Toronto. Curry's has a location on the Mississauga/Etobicoke border, on the Queensway. The only place within the borders of Brampton or Mississauga to get art supplies? Michael's.

An OshKosh store is replacing DeSerres, by gosh.
