July’s Art Exhibitions
This month, we have three new exhibitions on display for you to view during your coffee breaks.
In Greenpoint: Jody Erickson’s paintings are a haunting series of work; featuring spellbound figures, dreamy landscapes, candles in the night, leopards, historical figures like Evelyn Nesbit and more. Jody specializes in oil paint on wood and canvas. She lives in Greenpoint, Brooklyn (via the southern art collective and community of Winston-Salem, NC) where she painted for many years. Jody strives for tranquillity and sincerity in her work and a sense of mystery in the simple beauty of nature. For more information, visit her website here.
In Park Slope: New photographs entitled “Karkaaminen” (Finnish for “jailbreak”).
In Chelsea: WC (William Cody) Bevan was born in north east Ohio. He started drawing at a young age and after graduating from high school, he moved to Memphis Tennessee. He left Memphis after a seven year music binge to pursue working on his art in New York City where he currently resides. WC is a self-taught artist who enjoys collecting prints of Malcolm X and Dr Martin Luther King. View some of William’s work here.

Santa Teresa
“Blind Assessment: A deep, rich, intense acidity dominates the profile. Complex lemon-and-orange citrus, fresh-cut fir, ripe tomato in aroma and cup. Impressively rich, syrupy mouthfeel. Clean, dry finish.
Who Should Drink It: Those who enjoy grandly acidy, big-bodied medium-roasted coffees.”
-Kenneth Davids, Coffee Review, August 2011

Some Like it Cold (Brewed): 5 Cool Coffee Methods
“At New York’s Cafe Grumpy, seasonal coffees that have proven to taste great cold are selected throughout the warmer months, says co-owner Caroline Bell. Currently on slow drip is El Limonar, from Huehuetenango, Guatemala, a tangy, super-clean tasting brew of this citrusy, slightly cocoa coffee. And the Filtron’s super-smooth and balanced brew goes perfectly well with a little milk without diminishing any of the coffee’s flavor.”

Seventh Heaven Street Fair

Join us in Park Slope this Sunday from 12-6pm for the Seventh Heaven Street Fair.
Take your dad for a stroll along Seventh Avenue and support the local businesses in the neighborhood. We’ll have a stand set up outside the shop and will be serving iced-coffee, raspberry lemonade and these treats from our bakery: chocolate sandwich cookie (with raspberry pink-peppercorn filling) & hazelnut shortbread (with rosemary & apricot).
You can also join the Scavenger Hunt and win some great prizes from local businesses. Check out the details here.
