This is the cutest little shop! It's connected to Mama Kat's and offers a place to shop and sit…read morewith a cup of coffee while waiting for a table to open up at Mama Kat's. There is an outdoor patio area filled with succulents, cute decor, some women's clothing. There is also a help yourself coffee stand, just step inside and get a mug (the coffee is not free and will be added as a charge to your Mama Kat's bill). Inside is more of the shop, accessories, other cute stuff and a couch to sit. There is an open walk through to Mama Kat's. I was tempted to buy something, anything, because of the cuteness of the displays and the quaint feel of the shop. But, I didn't. This place adds to my liking of Mama Kat's and is a big draw for me to return to eat at Mama's.

I love Cannon Art Gallery and wish it showed more than two exhibitions in a year…read more That said, the two they had in 2024 were very cool. The first, curated by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, featured wonderful and intimate photographs of many rock and roll and blues legends, by Baron Wolman, Rolling Stone magazine's first chief photographer. Some I'd seen before, and many I was seeing for the first time. The second exhibition focused on fiber arts, and it was really interesting, surprising and inspiring. Artists interpreted "fiber" in many different ways and their creations were terrific. My favorite was a kimono made from tea bags. Mounting an exhibition takes a lot of work, and the caliber of shows at this gallery is excellent. And, the price of admission is zero. The next exhibition at this special venue is scheduled to open in February 2025. I don't know what it will be, but I will definitely be checking it out!
