Support Cancer Survivors with the 2026 Raw & Reflective Calendar

Connect Hair Studio is proud to unveil the latest edition of their "Raw & Reflective" calendar, in collaboration with Gilda’s Club Simcoe Muskoka. Now in its 7th edition, this calendar is more than just a way to keep track of your day-to-day. It’s a powerful tribute to resilience and community support.

This year's theme of 'Clarity' is shown throughout the stunning 12 month calendar, featuring 13 people from around the region living with cancer.

Their images have been created by some of the region’s top professional photographers and include each person’s story and perspective on their life since they have been touched by cancer.

Each month features black and white photo of an individuals "raw" self without any clothes, along with a "reflective" personal narrative about their journey. These stories provide a poignant glimpse into life since their diagnosis, offering an honest portrayal of their journeys.

The sale of each $25 calendar directly contributes to Gilda’s Club Simcoe Muskoka’s Cancer Support Program, ensuring vital resources and programs are available to those facing cancer, whether patients, survivors, or their loved ones.
