They will be holding a HUGE sale where prices will be dramatically low on most items with their final closing day planned for Friday, May 11. They shared, "We sincerely thank the city of Bellevue, our fellow business owners who were so nice in welcoming us so warmly, our customers, friends, family, supporters and, of course, all of the wonderful artists we have had the pleasure to meet and get to know.  It truly has been an honor for us."
