A Closure :: Things To Do In Beacon Guides 7/19/2024

Berte is closing after 6 years, and everything is on sale, even the fixtures. But the sale is not the news. It's the loss of the high aesthetic design store and of store owner Aimée deSimone herself out there on Main Street. Fellow shop comrades chimed in to Aimée's announcement: Vintage shop Blackbird Attic commented: "So sorry to hear of this news, I know how difficult the decision must have been 😞. I’ve always envied your shop, perfectly curated, you will be missed on Main! ♥️" Fellow collaborator on local events, Hyperbole, also felt the loss: "We love being your neighbors and friends. Everything you’ve built and accomplished is so inspiring. We will miss you, Berte — but on to the next big project ❤️" The jeweler King and Curated saw the positive: "What a great chapter it was! Glad it brought us together. Excited for you mama. All is well that ends well. You’ll be missed on Main. ❤️" Read More >                                           THE EVENTS + RETAIL THERAPY GUIDE Your Bizarre Day: A Comedy Show Day: Friday, July 19, 2024 Time: 7-8:30pm Location: Beacon Music Factory, 333 Fishkill Ave. Beacon, NY  Information > Beacon Open Studios Day: Friday-Sunday, July 19-21, 2024 Time: Artist Studios open from 12-6pm Time: Events scheduled throughout the weekend.

My son plays cello on Main St a couple of hours a week. He’s saving money to pay subway fare to attend the Manhattan School of Music Summer Program. He doesn’t come home with a whole lot ($20-$30 for a couple of hours) but it’s been helpful. Yesterday he only made about $5 and was cleaning his stuff up to leave when a woman ran over and dropped a $20 in his cello case.This meant a lot to my child and I’m really grateful to you."
