    Unexpected visit, and I'm so glad that I discovered this terrific place for unique Chicago and neighborhood-themed artwork and gifts. Located just a short walk south of Lincoln Square's main district, Sacred Art was such a good vibe. They play great music, have independent artists' work all over the shop, and it's a fun visit. Originally in Roscoe Village, they moved to their current location a decade ago. Such a unique selection, paintings, ceramics, photos, homemade jewelry, posters with a Chicago theme. Whether you are buying for your Chicago-area home, latching on to a memory, or looking for an item to retain your fond thoughts of your Chicago visit, this is a really good stop. Loved their "L" line station ID's, such a part of everyday public transit in this great city. So many interesting items, spent a half-hour here, and I'm looking forward to my next visit here because it's a special shop.

    A creative, friendly and inviting space offering jewelry, candles, prints, art, cards for every occasion. Most of the shop is Chicago themed, the other half equally as unique. There were particular prints resembling history of chicago house architecture that caught my eye I'll be back in the near future to purchase. I bought a pair of earrings and a card. Always down to support small businesses. Next time you need a small gift, art for your wall, a small low maintenance hanging plant or custom crafted jewelry you should stop in. Instead of running to your local Walgreens or jewel for a "just okay- gets the job done" card, check out this place first.

    I love a good punny name, this one based upon the name of the neighborhood (Ravenswood). I've…read moredriven by Ravensgoods so many times; if it wasn't here before I moved to the neighborhood, it opened shortly thereafter. This very tiny shop has a variety of items that would be perfect if you need to pick up a gift for someone. They have candles, greeting cards, jewelry, and several baby items. I ended up buying a cute little onesie that has is designed to look like the Chicago flag but with hearts in place of the stars. it's so cute and I can't wait to put it on my little ones. They had several other onesies that were cute. I mentioned to the shopkeeper that I wanted to get a little bean onesie, and she mentioned they carry them but they sell out so quickly and the woman who she gets them from is backed up in stock.It makes sense to me because they're adorable! I didn't realize they had them here so it's good I could pick it up from here if I can't find it elsewhere. Parking is on the street BUT you're in luck because the Brown Line station is half a block away. There's also street parking on Damen and possibly the surrounding streets (not sure, but because it's near a train station I'd suspect it might be permit parking on the side streets).

    My favorite gift boutique now that runs workshops with wine for painting, jewelry, tarot and more .read more

It was everything I hoped and dreamed for. Browsing the cards, stickers, journals and more in person was so much fun. Everywhere I looked I found more things that I wanted to buy for friends (or myself!). I love the humor in their store-made goods, and stocked up for the holidays and some upcoming special occasions. The store is brimming with creative, hilarious gifts and stationery. And supporting a local, woman-owned business is one of my favorite things to do. Staff were friendly and helpful, including hooking me up with a punch card that will guarantee more in-person trips.

And ignored for the rest of the time i was in there. Where as this little white woman walks in and they all flock to her and give her a million suggestions and was super nice and welcoming but with me they acted like they didn't want me there. I wouldn't shop here as a POC. *edit this was 5-27 at around 4:45pm. I'm a tall black man with locs. I've lived in logan for 6 years and I know when a staff doesn't want to help me in their store.
