Tomorrow night is the grand opening of our new neighbors’ spot, the Danger Danger Gallery. This is a new art space owned and operated by a group of talented young West Philly artists and musicians, formerly of the Danger Danger House. This is Russell Brodie (on the right).

He paints these lovely, small, intricate architectural pieces on wood panels. Below is the old Danger Danger House in West Philly.

yay party!

Thanks to everyone for coming out! People really seemed to have a great time. Lauren’s luminaries were a huge hit, and the music was tremendous. The awesome folks at Dock Street surprised us with some of their fine beverages. The punch was yummy too! We chatted and mingled as some lovely handmade gifts found good homes.

It was great to meet so many new people and spread the word about VIX. We’ll have these get-togethers every month or so, so watch our site for announcements. Or contact us and we’ll put you on our email list.

Cheers!

new shirt design

We just got an order of the ever-popular West Philly shirts in old and new designs. They turned out great! Look for collared golf shirts and hoodies as well as standard tees for men and women, and onesies for the little ones. We did our “It’s A New Day” design too! Stop by or call for more information…
