New Yorkers and Brooklynites! We are so thrilled to be making an appearance at the historic building of the Wythe Hotel. Come see us on Saturday, May 19th, from 12:00–2:00 PM, where we will be leading an adorable art-making activity perfect for all ages. Hosting this event is Avion Clothier, an LA & NY-based designer and store close to our hearts. Soor Ploom will also be on hand showing off their gorgeous line of children's clothes. Best of all, Basak Agaoglu, an acclaimed children's book illustrator and creator of The Almost Impossible Thing, will be reading from her book and talking about her craft and process as an artist to inspire your creative kiddos. Bring family and friends and join us for this perfect afternoon at the Wythe!
