Verdigris & Vein

show up for your friends first.

show up when the paint is still drying.
when they’re opening the doors for the first time.
when they’re nervous but doing it anyway.

show up for your community. support local.

a little birdie told me Wednesday the 24th is the soft opening of Purple Haze, and if you’re looking for somewhere to spend a little time and a few dollars, start with the folks right here who are creating something they believe in.

while you’re out, wander over to see our friends at the cutest new thrift and repair shop in YS. Golden Goods Thrift + Repair 🌞

small businesses don’t exist in a vacuum. they survive because people choose to show up for one another.

see you there 💟

P.S.
tell me about the other local small businesses & artists I’m missing out on - tag ‘em in the comments!

at the end of May, we got together some of our amazingly talented friends and had fun goofing around taking a good chunk of updated, modeled product photos for V&V - the first time since 2018 oops 🙈

please take a moment to enjoy some behind the scenes moments and favorite bloopers captured by Alexandra Elizabeth 📸
