OFFICIAL Store Grand Opening PARTY during Gallery Night

Hey everyone! Help us celebrate our OFFICIAL Store Grand Opening PARTY for Always Happy Hour.
In the lobby of the Landmark Building, and in our store in the Historic Third Ward. During Gallery Night, Friday April 15th, 5 to 10pm. We - and our landlord James Kadditz - are sponsoring shows in our combined shop by two artists: glass designer Dennis Shaffer from Chicago, plus glass photographs by Amy Schmutte of Milwaukee.

Gallery Night festivities include complimentary adult beverages and snacks, with modern lounge music provided by our good friend DJ John Murges. Remember those great sounds from our web launch party in November!

Artist Dennis Shaffer of Chicago IL invents amazing colored art glass objects utilizing the skills of Eastern European craftsmen. Bowls, vases, platters, stemware, sculptures and other pieces both functional and decorative... on display and available for sale!

The exhibit will also be open Saturday April 16th, 12 to 10pm, for those of you who just can't make it on Friday night (but Friday night will DEFINITELY be more fun....)
