Gorgeous Day for an Art Walk

Did you remember it's the Upper Queen Anne Art Walk today? It starts at 6pm and some businesses are open until 8pm while others are open until 9pm. What a gorgeous day to meander and walk the Queen Anne strip and look at art!

I popped in at the QA Farmer's Market to pick up some fresh berries and flowers for our artist reception and it was amazing to see all the families out and about. I hope on your way to or from the market, you'll be stopping by the businesses to say hello to the artists.

Oh yeah...something new at the McGraw end of the street. Eat Local and Bouncing Wall is working together to bring LOCAL Bounce. What is that you say? Well...it's our way of giving some space to the indie crafters and local artist vendors to have some place to strut their stuff. Come check it out. It's fun!

Best Neighborhood...Oh Yeah Queen Anne!

Let's give a little "whoop whoop" to Queen Anne being listed as the Best Neighborhood in the July issue of Seattle Magazine's BEST NEIGHBORHOODS.

Several of the Upper Queen Anne businesses were mentioned as to why Queen Anne is "vibrant" and "cool". How awesome is that! Our neighborhood shop Urban Kids Play and Bouncing Wall were the new stores mentioned as new comers, while they gave props to the "longtime favorites" like Queen Anne Books and Hilltop Yarn. In addition, the following places were mentioned as the places to eat and drink...El Diablo, Betty and How To Cook A Wolf
