What people say

People like:
Local artwork, distinctive cards and gifts, and conversations with the artists.
Wonderful spot to get cards and other unexpected bits of art. Small but packed!
Google reviewer
Sweet little shop run by an artist co-op that sells local pottery, paintings, prints, homemade textiles, and other beautiful creations. The co-op artists themselves also run the shop so you’re always going to chat with someone…
