Winter is HERE!

Updates for 2009!
Look for new faces, new products, new services, and new activities! With the Christmas season in full swing, we're making plans to stay active and stay warm through the new year. As we are busting out our own calenders, we thought we'd let you in on some of the things to put on your own.

1. Start checking out our blog for the "Artist of the Month"! The first weekend of every month, we will highlight one of our treasured 'in-house' artists. Paintings, prints, photos, chocolates, soaps, pins, earrings, mugs, purses, cheese, etc.! If it's original, it's game. If it's handmade, it's game, If it's yummy, it's game. This will be a chance for everyone to learn and better understand the process each artist goes through to create the work we love. Look for our first artist on January 8, 2009.

2. Tea of the Month: If you don't know already, we have an Artemis 'Tea of the Month' Club. Once you're a member, we send out yummy teas to you on the 15th of every month. Call us if you're interested in signing up yourself or a friend. Like the 'Artist of the Month', we'll provide you with an update on the tea we've chosen to give some extra attention.

3. We've added a face to our Artemis family! (as well as our 'family' family).
Her name is Audrey, and she's great. Stop by to welcome her and to say 'hello'. [Photo by Angela Davis. See more at: angelaphoto.blogspot.com - angeladavisphotography.com].

Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!














The Weston Merchants participate in a window display contest every year. We are working on ours!

This years theme is 'Songs of the Season' and each store will be choosing a Christmas song to help construct their display.

"Oh the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!"

Print Show!

On Saturday, November 8, 2008, we hung a new print show. The printmakers from Truman State University have selected a wide variety of art styles in a well assembled framework. Stop by to see us in the next couple of weeks to get your pick.

These hand-made prints would make great Christmas gifts-- for yourself, your friends or your spouse.


Halloween


Every Halloween, the Weston merchants dress up and participate in the Main Street trick-or-treating tradition. Kids come from surrounding areas to get lots and lots of candy!







Mike Ditka and a National Geographic photographer also stopped by....
