Keeping Money Local Webinar Series
We are part of an upcoming Webinar Series in October-November we feel you may be interested in called "Keeping Money Local" that focuses on investment in Southern Illinois communities and people.
“Keeping Money Local” will feature experts in local self-sufficiency, supporting local businesses, new business forms and local investment strategies. Speakers and panelists from local businesses will cover topics that can benefit our region, including initiatives that are already underway. The goal is to educate and inspire everyone to action in helping to make our region prosperous, productive and sustainable, and increase our regional self-sufficiency.
Would you or someone you know like to be a Sponsor of this event?
We would be happy to have you join for one or all four of our webinars either way!

Fundraiser. Please donate if you can!
As you may know, we have made the difficult decision to close our doors. Hopefully we will be able to open back up in the future.
In the meantime we need your help! We have started a GoFundMe fundraiser.
We want to purchase food and ingredients from our distributors while our suppliers can deliver, so we can assist in providing food for people who may need help in the coming weeks.
In addition, we (our staff and ourselves) are experiencing significant financial hardship due to all of these changes, and we need help as well.
If you have the means (any little bit helps-even $1.00) please donate to our fundraiser. The funds will help us procure supplies for the people who need them, assist our staff with their immediate needs, and help us to remain viable so we can reopen our doors to you on the other side of this.
Thank you for your help! Thank you for your support!

Stay Safe! Stay Well!

PORTENTS
Artwork by Adaline Lewis Tucker
Artist Reception Friday July 26, 6-8pm
Light refreshments will be available as well as a cash bar.
The show will consist of ceramic weapons, platters, and a few figures that are articulations of the artist's own mental fiction. Literature and art history blend continuously and occasionally objects present themselves as significant. Exploring these synchronous qualities is the path and the destination, along with hoping the viewer can start formulating a new narrative of their own.
Portents will run from July 2 - July 31. Stop by during regular hours to see the show.
