Y’all, gather around because this one is a tough one to write…It is with a heavy uhhh beard that we have to announce that our little kooky shop that could, no longer can, & will be closing at the end of this month.😢 The decision to close up shop comes from a variety of places including lacking sales necessary to cover the exorbitant overhead costs associated with what we do here, our own desires to pursue higher priority personal goals for ourself, and simply the realization that our shop that we love soo very much no longer fits into our bigger picture for the life we hope to lead. This was NOT an easy decision for us to make, however we are at peace with it & are VERY proud of what we have built and the legacy that we leave behind. It has been our distinct honor and privilege to represent our vibrant artist community here and to also provide support and visibility for our beautiful LGBTQ+ community here in Milwaukee and we cannot thank each and every one of YOU for supporting US in this journey.❤️ To our over 100 artists who make our space the amazingly unique place that it is, thank you for sharing your talents with us & trusting us to represent you & all that you do- keep creating, keep evolving & keep putting beauty out into the world- we need it now more than ever! To my family- I am the luckiest man in the world to have each and every one of you in my life and in my corner. The sacrifices that each one of you have made to uplift me & allow me to chase my dreams has not gone unnoticed or unappreciated & I cannot thank you all enough- y’all are my HEART! To Michael- nobody understands the stress, difficulty & hustle required to do what we have done here more than you & I am sooo incredibly lucky to have had you by my side throughout this entire journey. You & I both know that none of this would be possible without your unwavering support & I love, respect & appreciate you for always being there for me! To our customers- thank you ALL for loving our little shop soo very much and celebrating what we do here & what we stand for! It is because of you that we have been able to realize our dreams & in turn share it with all of you-Here’s to what lies ahead!❤️🍻
