http://www.artwithaheart.netKick off your holiday shopping season at the grand opening of Art with a Heart’s (AWAH) social enterprise store, HeARTwares, located on The Avenue in Hampden.
The bright and colorful space features a wide variety of hand-made and one-of-a-kind artwork, jewelry, houseware items, garden ornaments and assorted gifts. Merchandise includes mosaic lamps, coasters, children’s tables and chairs, wish dolls, ornaments, photo frames, note cards, mirrors, t-shirts, notepads, candles and more!
A common theme of HeARTwares is "shopping with purpose" and buying gifts with meaning. Each item is unique and was crafted with enthusiasm by community volunteers and students and apprentices in AWAH’s workforce development program, HeARTworks.
The grand opening celebration will begin with a ribbon cutting ceremony officiated by City Council Member Odette Ramos. Throughout the day, guests can enjoy a unique shopping experience, as well as interactive art activities, music and light refreshments. Admission is free, with complimentary shuttle service between HeARTwares and the Mill Centre. Guests can park in the Mill Centre lot (3000 Chestnut Avenue) and board the FreedomCar van, which will run to and from HeARTwares on The Avenue from 10:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
