TONIGHT'S ART NIGHT CANCELED due to severe weather (March 13, 2026)
The safety and well being of our shoppers and vendors remains our top priority and we have made the decision to cancel tonight due to the severe weather. This is a very rare occurrence as we have an open rain or shine policy, however, this is much more than that and it would be negligent of us to be open with flooding and the severity of the weather. We hope you will join us next Friday (March 20th).
