Brace yourselves, June is going to be a busy one! Here at the shop we've been so excited for the Downtown summer events, and June is definitely starting with some energy.
This weekend is First Friday. Friday night, June 6th, we will be having a trunk show of Alexandrite, June's birthstone. Come in and see an incredible assortment of this fascinating gemstone from some of our favorite vendors.
That night Downtown will be open until 9p.m. Bring the family for a great night of live music, art, shopping, food, and fun! Discover what your Downtown has to offer. CLICK HERE to see the First Fridays Facebook page.
This summer, to add to the fun and success of First Fridays, Downtown will also be hosting Third Fridays. It'll be another great night to hangout late by the lake and explore Main Street and Sixth Street. The first one kicks off the night of June 20th!
Also beginning in June is the is the 13th Annual Public Art Event "Monumental Squares". Artists submitted creations in a wide variety of media on 8x8" boards that were framed up in groups of sixteen. Pictured below is the piece that will be hanging at Art Metals Studio for the summer.
