Open House January 20th 6-9pm for 3rd in the Burg

We are rolling right along with the new shop. Friends and family are helping us get ready to open the doors.

We’re looking for new artists of all types. Please send them our way!  The new building has plenty of opportunity for everyone! The basic way it works for the selling artist and crafter is $50 per month and 10% of sales. Simple, fair, well worth being part of growing and extraordinary community of local creatives!

January 20th 6-9pm OPEN HOUSE  we’re inviting you, our wonderful friends, fans and family to an open house to see what’s happening. Feel free to bring along your own friends, family & fellow creators to get the feel of what we are developing at 1320 N 3rd St in Harrisburg! There will be light refreshments and hopefully a tour of the whole building in progress.

The new HodgePodgery location also affords us to expand into other realms. We currently occupy the first floor, with the main shop being in the front room on 3rd St. That room is handicap accessible. In the second room moving back, The HoPo shares space for my office in my roles as Queen of the HoPo and Cruise Consultant with Expedia CruiseShipCenters.  In that same space we will hold small classes, seminars and talks, as well as knitting and sewing circles.  Next, we have our semi-private workshop area for messy projects. Finally, in the rear, is our kitchen we are planning to set up our  for commercial use.  Look for completion by spring as funds allow.

In the rear former apartment on the 2nd floor of our building, and by the grace of our benevolent landlords,  plans are being hatched to create a funky little co-working space for creatives of all types. The rooms aren’t huge, but they’ll be a great place to hang out, and work with other people.  At the moment, there is still an occupant in the front apartment.

The 3rd floor of the building is pure art space available to be rented on a monthly, weekly or daily basis, depending on demand.  FYI, One of the rooms is already spoken for.

Take not of all the blank wall space….the gallery awaits!  CALLING ALL CREATIVES HoPo_Artist_App_2012!
