July Newsletter!

July is gonna be emotional for us SHOP-types, not only do we have the excitement of Independents Day on the 4th of July, celebrating all things indie (getting a tear in our shoppy-eyes just thinking about it), but SHOP Directors, Jayne and Brett, have decided to put their money where their mouths are, when they say art and creativity should be a universal persuit ... so, they're trying things on the 'other side' of SHOP by having an exhibition each in the Arts Space!
