American Quilters | Vintage Textiles
All I needed to see were the words “American” & “Vintage” in the same sentence and my attention was drawn. Never mind that I was not just the only man in the room, but the only non-retirement aged person in the room as well. Yeah, well, vintage textiles and a mutual admiration for masterful craftsmanship [...]
Primus | A Thoroughly Creative Experience
When you’ve got it, you’ve got it. And Primus definitely has it. They’ve been around since the mid 1980s and remain consistently solid musically and as heavily experimental and progressive as ever. I typically enjoy three solid meals a day of all-things-music (with extra helpings of rock) and consider myself reasonably well-versed but I wasn’t [...]
Hatch Show Print | A Working Letterpress Museum
I knew about Hatch Show Print before I actually knew about them. I had seen their posters in shop windows and restaurants and even wine labels they had created, but never knew who was behind the beautiful letterpress print work.
New York Adorned
N.Y. Adorned “Tradition” from Evan Owen Dennis on Vimeo. When I decided some years ago to make a permanent and meaningful mark on my skin, I looked for a parlor with talented artists and a reputation for having the highest quality and standards. After asking everyone I knew who had tattoos- and for that matter, [...]
Scott Caan | The Hundreds

Old Faithful Shop | Vancouver B.C.
I now have one more to add to my list of places to visit on my next trip out West (and a bit North to Vancouver, to be exact). I used to travel a couple times a year to Vancouver for work and really found it to be a great place. A perfect mix of [...]
PORCHES | Berkshire Digs
If you live (or are visiting) anywhere near the Northeast U.S. and need a great place to decompress for a few days, I wholeheartedly recommend Porches. The entire experience is geared to ease you out of the everyday-grind. Low-key, quiet, hip (but, void of attitude), and surrounded by great restaurants and art museums.
HUDSONS | A Find For Finds
During my most recent visit to the Mass MOCA location of Hudsons, I was more drawn to the artistry of the mundane, but the wonderful pair of Hudsons shops in Williamstown and North Adams, Massachusetts are anything but mundane. The shops/galleries cater to a wide variety of collector, offering well edited finds from fine art [...]
Wilco Concert Posters | For the Love of Art
I have to admit having very little knowledge of Wilco‘s music. Beyond knowing that they’re an alternative country band from Chicago, I’m pretty much on the outside of their orbit. Based on the small show I recently took in that highlighted their concert tour poster art, I’m quite willing to give their music a wholehearted [...]
Sol LeWitt @ Mass MoCA
The Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (Mass MoCA) never disappoints and is always worth the drive. Yes, New York has it’s share of wonderful museums- many of which I still need to see. Spending a weekend in North Adams, Mass and visiting Mass MoCA is an entirely different experience. The museum occupies what was once [...]
