Bear and Bird Boutique + Gallery is a new, fresh venue for artists locally and around the world. The 700 square foot wood floored loft space is divided into a boutique and a gallery. The boutique features special items that I feel will entice the savvy shopper. Think of it as a ‘museum store’ of sorts, the contents of which will be curated by me. It is an ecclectic mix of jewelry, books, clothing, toys, housewares, handmade items and more.
The gallery is nothing but walls without all the artists out there! We will feature group and theme shows, as well as one-man shows; focusing on up-and-coming artists and illustrators, and hope to keep the prices in the range that people can’t afford to pass up! The possibilites of teaming up with so many talented people is very exciting. Officially they specialize in “contemporary representational art”.
Everything in the boutique and gallery will also be featured in an online store, which will be another new venture for them. Hoping to bring wares to a wider audience through the internet!
Bear and Bird is an off shoot of TATE’S Comics+Toys+Videos+More which was established in 1993 by Tate Ottati . TATE’S is family owned an operated and is constantly evolving to stay fresh and interesting. Tate’s wife, Amanda, has been involved with TATE’S since 1996, when it was a much smaller and more traditional comic book store. Through many years of hard work, Tate and Amanda, along with many others (notably: Tate’s parents, Tony & Eileen) grew TATE’S into the 6,000 square foot business that has been called a “pop culture mecca”.
