Join us for the Grand Opening of the Public Works Shop. We’re reintroducing ourselves to the neighborhood as the one-stop, art & design shop for apparel, home goods, books, music, and more.
This isn't a traditional Public Works exhibition. This time we're shining a light on the space itself. We’ve built a new lounge into our retail space with custom furniture designed by Someoddpilot and crafted by Navillus Woodworks. Grab your own limited edition runs: we’ve created a custom sofa, lounge chair, stool, work table, coffee table, and bench designs, all available for purchase. Park it and read, work, and drink Dark Matter coffee or simply sit and enjoy our turntable listening station stocked with curated music. Shop new apparel and neighborhood collaborations, plus dig into ground breaking art & design work from our past 15 years of exhibitions.
