Small Biz Hug of the Day: Abby Kreuser, @kreuserga

Small Biz Hug of the Day: Abby Kreuser, @kreusergallery

Kreuser Gallery opened in February of 2011 and moved to Downtown Colorado Springs in February of 2019. Abby's mission is to create and maintain a dynamic, independent forum providing a venue for established and up-and-coming local artists. We fulfill the need for personal growth, communication and a sense of community among artists and viewers.
Tucked into the back of the gallery is a little boutique filled with handcrafted jewelry, pottery, candles and more. The MaD candle collection is made by Abby and her mother.

Support this family-owned business by shopping online or participating in #VirtualFirstFriday on June 5. Link in bio.

“Equal parts Jim Henson and Mad Max...” “Oth

“Equal parts Jim Henson and Mad Max...”
“Otherworldly alive...”
“Scattered, shattered, formed and beautiful...” These were comments collected by passerby as Matt Carlson’s metal sculpture, Guardian, was installed this morning in the median at 111 E Pikes Peak. Come take a peek! This creature is beautiful! -

Small Biz Hug of the Day: The Men's Xchange, James

Small Biz Hug of the Day: The Men's Xchange, James Proby

As a #socialenterprise, the @Mensxchange balances the mission of the organization with a market-driven approach that drives sustainable revenue to help support programmatic goals. The mission: to help men become better men. Better men for their significant others and better men for this community.

Stop in and the first thing you will notice is that this is not a thrift store experience. You’ll find tailored suits, crisp slacks, dress shirts in every color, handmade pocket scarves and shiny new dress shoes, all under $40. But if you talk to Founder and Chief Ethos Officer, @JamesProby he isn’t selling clothing, he is selling confidence.
Location: 409 N. Tejon St. in @downtown_cs

Introducing "The Whirlwind Juniper" by Tom Benedict / @montanawildwoods
Located in the NW corner of #acaciapark -

The piece takes on a burgundy-red lustre after a rainfall and makes a stunning addition to the natural environment in our beloved #downtown_cs park. -

Stay tuned for new installation throughout May and June! -

Small Biz Hug of the Day: @sparrowhawkcookware

Started by Sam Eppley and his mom in May 1979 and the family-owned business will celebrate 41 years Downtown this month!

Whether you are a trained chef, a novice just above reheating franks and beans, or somewhere in between, every foodie loves this locally-owned shop on Tejon St -

Kitchen gadgets, sarcastic dinner napkins, @Lacrueset cookware and grilling accessories (Memorial Day!) are just a few of the items you will find at Sparrowhawk -

These days the shop is operated by brothers Allen and Sam Eppley along with Sam's wife, Christine and the real VIP, their dog Koda.

How to support this #smallbiz:

- Leave a kind word on Google, Facebook or Yelp
