Swoon City is a romance bookstore and creative hub we celebrate what you love! https://swoon.city We also rent out our 16 button makers by the hour or the day.

Monster has local artwork, clothing for men, women, and children, fun accessories and very unique greeting cards... not to mention a huge wall of socks. Great gift ideas at affordable prices, so you can afford to treat yourself as well! We make a point to request plus sizes from our artists and currently have stock from XS to 4XL. Monster proudly features the unique works of over 100 independent artists but Monster is more than just a retail shop. As the host of art and craft classes - we are more of a community meeting place & a spot to work on a project or meet friends to chat and stitch. Come knock out a project in the shop or bring a machine home to button make through the wee-hours of the night.

Recently we hosted a women in marketing meetup put on by Electric Butter Marketing. It was so lovely to meet so many inspiring women building businesses and careers in so many different marketing disciplines.
Holly Theriot joined and painted bookmarks for our guests. I love mine! I’m hoping she’ll come back for future events at Swoon City so more of our community can experience her art!
I haven’t been able to figure out how to remove the text from this template so if anyone has the secrets, let me know!
