THE LOCAL E!GHT

Curated Picks to Support Second Saturday Englewood (SSE) 
Every month the SSE Committee promotes a list of art galleries and creative businesses in Englewood. So we created the Local Eight, a way to feature some of our favorites and celebrate a few not on the list. 
To learn more about the SSE, please visit link in the So Much More to Explore section below.
FYI: no AI was used in the making of this page – all content/photos created by real people.

The Local 8 is curated by Nicky & Stuart Alden in support of Second Saturday. 
We've been Englewood residents since 2004 and now that Ink Lounge has settled into the new (2024) studio close to home, we decided to curate a monthly mix of creative activities, restaurants, and galleries that we think others would enjoy during their Second Saturday outing.
