Greetings!
Tomorrow at the Omni Commons, we'll be hosting our first of a potentially
bi-monthly pop-up bazaar featuring local artists, artisans and craftmakers.
Stop by anytime between 12-8pm and peruse a phantasmagorical cornucopia of
objects and imbibements to titillate the tongue, warm the belly, inspire
the mind and adorn the body!
The mission of these Collabazaars is to create a sustainable model for
fundraising for the Omni's monthly expenses while simultaneously providing
local makers in our community with income and visibility to support their
continued creative / artistic / crafty / culinary endeavors.
As the sun sets both tonight and tomorrow, the Omni will metamorphize into
a haunted house befitting of its creepy cavernous and labrynthian corners!
