The cooperative effort with 3 other local businesses (Contented Cow, The Art Store, and River City Books) was a huge! In the first hour, we attracted over 200 visitors to our Moving Walls Gallery and in total, the number was over 550 for the night. Thanks to everyone who made this night very special! Visit our friends at Northfield.org for the photo gallery (the first 20 photos are from the gallery).

The gallery show and sale of art continues with over 50 original works from Mary Grandpre, the illustrator of the Harry Potter series. This is the largest sale of its kind featuring Mary’s works from Plum, The Sea Chest, Pockets, Batwings, and several of Mary’s editorial and advertising work. We are exhibiting Mary’s work for the cover of an Atlantic Monthly magazine, and also the cover for a Lands End catalog.

The exhibition runs for two weeks from July 15-31, and the exhibition hours are Thursday-Sunday, from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. Don’t miss it!
