First Thursdays in the Pearl

The first Thursday of every month many of the businesses in our neighborhood open their doors to showcase local art and provide food, wine, and beer to everyone walking around. This past Thursday, the 2nd of June.  Our friend, C opened his loft to showcase art made by our friend, Tom. If you have seen the reclaimed wood furniture that is in or house then you have seen Tom's craftsmanship. On the walls this Thursday was his spray paint creations done on vintage windows. Also on hand to keep the crowd from getting thirsty was B, pouring high test beer from Widmer; KGB Russian Imperial Stout, Nelson Imperial IPA, and Pitch Black, their NorthWest IPA. With two pushing 12% alcohol and another over 6% we were kept sufficiently happy. It was a lot of fun and a lot of people came through C's beautifully decorated loft. We know Tom at least sold one piece... to us!
