We are excited to host Veneration of Light
June 5th at our NW 23rd location 🕯️

Heather Allison will be showcasing her beautiful photographs and one of a kind restored photo cases and frames. ⚜️🍇
Heather arranges taxidermy, flowers, bones and books into dramatic compositions reminiscent of vanitas style Dutch master botanical paintings. Her photos dance the line between the macabre and the sublime: a nod to her love of Victorian memento mori, she venerates both equally.

Meet the artist and enjoy an array of morsels and libations from 3-7pm!

Items available for purchase starting first Friday in June 🌹
