From an email:

“The Art Room is a pottery painting studio, art gallery, and creative space. Growing up, I loved making art with my mom. We designated a little space in our basement “the art room,” so this space is my attempt to elevate and share her love and vision for creativity.

“New Wellness + Art Shop Opening in Brookland/Woodridge”

By Prince Of Petworth


3419 18th Street, NE

“Dear PoPville,

The new store is called Made With Love. It’s designed to be a neighborhood space for wellness and art. From the physical space itself (which I personally renovated), to the products sold here, to the art people can make here, everything in the space is made with love. We honor that we are all unique individuals made with love, made of love, made for love.

Here, we sell handmade wellness-related goods made by local businesses and artists (candles, body and hair products, wellness journals, art kits, essential oils, and more), featuring makers of color. We will also hold family friendly art and wellness classes, such as expressive painting, therapeutic journaling, meditative coloring, tea mixing, and more. This is a space to unplug, slow down, and enjoy!

We’re preparing for a soft opening this Friday and weekend.”
