ok so i guess we were kidding when we said last sat/sun were our last days over at Mew Gallery.

well ok, they were supposed to be but we just have so much stuff left over that we are extending our liquidation sale a bit.

Friday Jan 15 & Sat Jan 16 are our final, final, FINAL  days.  That’s TOMORROW and the day after that, folks! Consider this your absolute LAST CHANCE to take home a little piece of Mew with you.

Prices are slashed (all merchandise is $5 and under!!!) and we do still have some good finds to rummage through.  T-shirts! jewelry! cards and stationary! clothing! display lighting! jewelry displays! prints, prints and more prints!!!

we also still have a selection of awesome fixtures that are a little over $5 including:

a vintage metal rolling/collapsable large (36″ diameter) clothing rack, custom built computer/cash register counter unit with built in shelves, drawers and display case- great for home office or commercial use!, hand-built 2-tier suspended tree branch clothing rack, and an industrial stainless steel 3 bin Eagle sink- great for commercial use or for any artist studio!

once again, LAST chance THIS FRI and SAT!!!

After 3 wonderful years, Mew Gallery will be closing for good.  We so appreciate all of your support!!

Don’t cry South Philly locals!  Something new and just as exciting will be opening in the neighborhood in February!  Look for Nice Things…Handmade coming soon to 1731 East Passyunk Ave.  It’s a new store/gallery by our friend Elissa Kara!

Before we say goodbye for good, though, we want you to know the following info:

1.  We will be closed for Christmas vacation from Dec. 24 - Jan. 1.

2.  We should still be open for business January 2 - January 11 as we pack up.  There will be furniture and fixtures for sale too!!

3.  If you are an artist who consigns here please make an appointment with us to come get your stuff (or make arrangements to ship it back)!  Hopefully you already got the email and letter we sent out last month.  If not, please note that all  of your merchandise must be picked up before January 8, 2010 or it will become property of Mew Gallery LLC or be donated to a charity.  The best way to reach us is by email: mewgallery(at)yahoo(dot)com.  Most artists are making appointments for the week of January 4 - January 8.  Mon - Fri.  Let us know what works best for you!!

Thank you all for everything!!  and PLEASE continue to support local artists and small businesses!!

Hi everyone,

a year ago my friend Dave found out that he has brain cancer. Two surgeries, and multiple treatments later, he’s still going strong in his battle, but since the war with cancer is not cheap, a few friends are putting together a great big benefit to raise money to help offset some of the costs, and well, just to show him how much we love him.

even if you do not know him personally, your support would be greatly appreciated. Please come out if you can make it, and help spread the word  if you can’t.

thanks,

Carolynne

Mew Gallery Presents:

Mew Gallery is proud to present its second show curated by the infamous Mike Geno.  The Bacon Show is an exhibition of work celebrating the glory of bacon in all its sizzling, savory goodness.  Featuring artists Ellen Cagnassola, Cho, Jacob Crose, Mike Geno, Ken B.  Miller, SappyMoose Tree, John Wolfer, and more, the show will be up from October 31 through December 17.  An opening reception for the artists will be held on November 7 from 5 to 9 pm.

Mike Geno is a Philadelphia artist whose subjects include sock monkeys, deranged toys, Tasty Kakes, and choice cuts of meat.  His work elevates the kitsch and common to a unique level with a hard to resist mixture of humor and prowess.

Come out and celebrate your love for this cured breakfast meat before it jumps the shark like cupcakes did.
