It’s been a very exciting year with the new Studio location right in the heart of Saugatuck area in Westport Connecticut! Best of all, I get to participate in the Slice of Saugatuck event this year, held on Saturday September 25 from 2-5pm.

Kelsey (from Haus of Pretty) and I will have a table set up right in front of the Studio at 575 Riverside Ave. with some fun giveaways and merchandise, so definitely stop by and see us!

About the event:

Walk the streets of Saugatuck Center and get food bites from the area’s amazing restaurants, stop by to see local merchants, and enjoy being outdoors in gorgeous Saugatuck. There will be a Black Belt Tae Kwon Do demonstration by Westport's award winning martial artists, home decorations and flower displays, and a raffle giveaway. Several bands will be playing live music, with dance demonstrations. The Fire Department will have their antique fire engine on display, which is perfect for kids, with a Maker Space 3D printing setup in Luciano Park.

Maps will be available so you can see and table everything on offer. Get your passport stamped and enter in the lottery for gift certificates for many of the participating businesses. And best of all, all proceeds benefit the Gillespie Food Pantry.
