Happening near Homespun: Modern Handmade

Community has always been at the heart of Homespun: Modern Handmade.

In addition to welcoming Spring and its much needed cleansing energy, we are SO EXCITED to welcome old friends and new neighbors to the 800 block of Mass Ave, where Homespun has been nestled for over a decade!

TOMORROW BOOK STORE

An independent bookstore is JUST what we needed on Mass Ave! As lovers of literature, we are thrilled for the chance to browse the shelves of Tomorrow Bookstore when they open in early April! If you just can’t wait to see them in person, you can order now from their website. Say hi when you can and pick up a must-read from Indy’s newest bookstore.

Welcome Back, BEST CHOCOLATE

Best Chocolate in Town is back on the block and as delicious as ever! Best Chocolate in town is no understatement, and our staff is happy dancing to have sweets and treats within walking distance from our shop. Best Chocolate is also offering chocolate making classes and more. Come give your sweet tooth its best day ever.

Peabody’s Emporium

While this sweet shop isn’t new to Mass Ave we are always eager to see what new plants, products, eclectic items, and curiosities are popping up next door at Peabody’s Emporium.

Bottleworks and The Garage

In the last few years, Bottleworks District, including the Bottleworks Hotel and The Garage, have given our end of the block a new life! Its awesome to see folks from Indy and beyond gather to share a meal from dozens of local spots, or play all day at Pins Mechanical Co. Don’t miss other great shops located in The Garage and around Bottleworks, like Good Neighbor and more. The Bottleworks district is a welcoming hangout for visitors and Indy locals alike. We can’t wait to see more friendly faces walking around the district as it gets nicer out!

At Homespun, we have A LOT to be excited about on our favorite end of Mass Ave! Come for a stroll and check out all the happenings with your favorite shops, familiar and brand new. We’ll see you soon!

Meet Homespun Gallery’s October Artist: Molly Wolfe

Meet the Artist dressing up our October Gallery, Indianapolis artist Molly Wolfe!

Don’t miss our October Gallery with Molly Wolfe! Her original work, prints, and stickers will be up through the month of October and we are thrilled to welcome this unique, vibrant artist to our shop!

About Molly Wolfe:

Emerging artist, Molly Wolfe is best known for her symmetrical watercolor paintings. Through a self-reflective lens, her work explores the relationship between memory and identity through the use of everyday objects, patterns, and symbolism. “My paintings’ ability to trigger a sense of familiarity and nostalgia is essential when understanding my work.” she says, “ Although the images presented will not make viewers recall the same stories as I do, the compositional arrangements will make each person consider their own connections to the objects and the memories they personally associate with them.” Her most recent work consists of large-scale, archival watercolor paintings on canvas focusing on imagery from her childhood spent in the midwest.

 

You can keep up with Molly and her art by checking out her website mollywolfeart.com. 

You can also find her on social media:

Homespun Gallery Presents: Tara Magan Art

Meet our September Gallery Artist and shop this local artist’s work all month long!

We are SO excited to introduce you to our September Gallery Artist, Tara Magan Art.

Tara Nastoff is an Indianapolis based, abstract line artist who discovered her distinctive personal style in 2020. The artist explores the use of lines, color blocking, and up-cycled art supplies  to highlight the beauty and simplicity of the human body. As a child, Tara adamantly strove to create realistic portraits. Yet, her personal style now honors the concept of cherishing and finding the beauty in your mistakes.

We love Tara’s work for her gorgeous depictions of women, her use of clean lines and striking color combinations. We first came across Tara’s work at a pop up shop in Fountain Square. After I bought two pieces for my own home I couldn’t wait to introduce Tara to our Homespun audience. You can support this local artist and shop her original pieces and prints all month long at Homespun! With 8 original pieces and dozens of smaller prints there is SO MUCH beauty to browse on our gallery.

 

Follow @homespunindy and @tara_magan_art for more.
