✨ One of EGAD’s newest additions, Wood & Grace Artisan Jewelers, opened its doors this summer with something pretty special behind them.
So we had to wander in to get the scoop on the story behind these doors.
Family-owned and rooted in generations of jewelry experience, Wood & Grace brings together a collection that includes rare gems, heirloom pieces and stones sourced from mines that are no longer open (some of which haven’t been in circulation for nearly 20 years!)
Their focus goes beyond beautiful jewelry. They specialize in quality, heirloom redesign, and creating pieces meant to be treasured for generations, but while building a brand that feels connected to the community they now call home.
This is what makes EGAD, EGAD.
Creative people. Independent businesses. Artists, makers and entrepreneurs taking a chance on something of their own and adding a little more character to our corner of the Space Coast.
But a creative district doesn’t stay creative by accident. It takes all of us choosing to shop local, show up, share their stories and support the businesses that make this place unique.
So next time you’re wandering through EGAD, stop in, say hello and discover what Wood & Grace is bringing to the district. 💎

👀 Did you even know this was here?
Tucked inside EGAD, The Creative Playground is one of those places that’s a little hard to explain… because it’s not just one thing.
It’s art. It’s immersive digital experiences. It’s a place to grab a glass of wine or a beer. It’s somewhere to hang out with friends, bring the family, or make a date night out of it. 🎨✨
So we stopped in while wandering EGAD to chat with the owners and find out more about the space behind the doors.
Sometimes the best discoveries are the places you didn’t even know could exist!
