Happy to say goodbye to 2024? So are we. Thankfully, it is over. What can we say about the new year? It’s only just begun. Remember: we only have each other. Let’s take a look at the free events we are offering in the shop this month:

Obviously we are very excited about the art show at the end of the month – if you are a local artist and you’d like your work featured on the walls, you can sign up on this spreadsheet. Please be sure to drop off by the deadline (Jan. 20) and when you are dropping off, provide your artist tags (a small piece of paper that includes the price/name of your work, and any artist information you want to provide).

Please also note that we have slightly different hours for the months of January, February and March. We will be CLOSED on Thursdays as well as Tuesdays, and have more limited hours on Sunday (2-5:30). Our hours page on this website are updated and so is the google listing.
