🚨 New flavor alert🚨

One returning flavor and one brand new one!

We are excited to bring back this fan favorite for fall. Butterbeer! 🍺 A fluffy marshmallow with layers of butterscotch and cream then topped with butterscotch chips. It’s perfect for witches, wizards and muggles alike. 🧙🏻

We have a brand new flavor that we are so excited to share with you! Inspired by the sticky fall treat, Caramel Apples. This marshmallow is soft and a bit gooey. It is layered with a center of green apple sandwiched between caramel flavored marshmallows swirled with Carmel ribbons and topped with caramel sanding sugar.

Unfortunately, we will not be at third Friday tonight, because of the storm. It’s important that everyone’s safety comes first! We are sad the weather is keeping us away but there is still fun to be had indoors tonight. And we will share the new date as soon as possible. Thanks for understanding!

THIRD FRIDAY WEATHER UPDATE 🌧️
Due to the incoming storm and out of concern for the safety of our artists, vendors, and community, tonight’s outdoor Third Friday vending has been postponed.

BUT—we’re still celebrating tonight! 💛

✨ The Third Friday reception for Hailey Williams at our Madison Street Gallery is still happening tonight.
✨ We’ll also be having the soft opening of our new LaSalle Street Gallery!
✨ We’re working with local business owners to offer indoor vending opportunities for some of tonight’s artists. Check back for a full list of places to find the artists soon!

We know weather changes are never fun, especially when everyone has been preparing for this event, and we truly appreciate your patience and understanding. Our priority is keeping everyone safe while still finding ways to celebrate our amazing creative community. 💛
