FREE is back

Free what? Free hand delivery to all New York city addresses, that's what.
What's the catch? Well you gotta buy something... and it's for NYC ADDRESSES ONLY. Other than that - no catch.
You see. Now that I'm not running a brick n' mortar store, working like 60+ hours a week. I got some free time to queue up orders and saunter around the City a few times every week acting like Ghetto Santa Claus.
When checking out in the Shopping Cart, you'll see this Special Courier / Hand Delivery option appear when you select NYC as your destination like so:

Make sure to give specific drop-off instructions and/or a valid phone number during checkout so we can contact you to set up a good time to drop off your package. Here is where you'll see that nearly invisible link in the PayPal screen:

To simplify the process, here is this hotlink for City folks: http://www.ebmerc.com/nyc
It will set the proper shopping cart parameters for you, the citizens of Fun City.

We're closing our Red Hook location
STORE CLOSING
UPDATE:
I'm pulling down wall units from the store and returning it to 'white box' condition. Merchandise still strewn about, marked down further. come by and git some.

We are extremely thankful for the many fine people we've had the pleasure of meeting along with the strange and interesting things we've experienced while running this odd retail experiment here on the Brooklyn waterfront.
THE WEB STORETHE RED HOOK SPACE
Our store on the Web is still active and will continue uninterrupted.
We're actually taking some time early in the new year to rebuild and re-launch it in an amusing and tricky new expanded HTML5 version that is more fitting of our playful sensibilities... that should be a lot of fun. (Yes, I AM proud of that long ass sentence.)
Starting this New Years weekend we will be selling off various furniture/displays, tools, and many items on markdown.
You know where we're at:
351 Van Brunt Street... between Wolcott and Dikeman.
THE FUTURE
Clearing out the old... how about the new?
Will we re-launch a new space sometime in the future?
If so, will it be a retail space or something different?
An event space perhaps? A series of pop-ups? In Brooklyn? Elsewhere?
Elsewhere??!?!!! Where? when? how? why?
Stay tuned. It will be Maximum wonderful.

Not Out Of The Woods Yet
Can you believe it? Another art show is opening at Everbrite Mercantile Co. this Saturday.
Not Out Of The Woods Yet reflects Alejandro Teichberg's semi-urban perspective of nature from which he is inseparable, yet alienated. Teichberg weaves natural themes together with personal memory, and allegory into landscapes that represent his psychic environment.
Just like our bodies react to exposure, so do our minds, well- marinated in processed foods and sensory overload. As every minute is layered with contradiction- tinged truths, the definition of nature expands while the very edges of the woods shrink. Despite these discords the mind ties the loose ends into a relatively uniform whole.
Alé, a old friend from my Richmond days, will be showing his collection of richly painted canvases. The opening will include intermittent sounds by ambient-experimental project Muilch.

this is yer brain on drugs
Finery, frippery, gee-gaws, gadgets and ephemera.
Quite a few things you've never seen in your life up to now.
Uncommon fanciful things.
Obscure objects of desire.
There is a critical mass of such stuff at our Red Hook store at the moment.
Behollllld:
Things from rural Pennsylvania farm country strewn about the front.
A rifle case. It probably had a .22 bolt action in it at one time. I made a rubberband assault rifle that fits perfectly inside.
Look. He's smiling.
All sorts o' stuff - jewelry, Pop Chart Lab posters, vintage shoes...
Ye Olde cardiac monitor.
A 52-year-old painted bamboo calendar. We have a selection of these with various artwork screened on them.
Decades old lighters. They all light on the first strike.
Jao in the house, sharing space with Patent medicine bottles from the 1800s
Kreepy Dolls. Always unique: Never the same doll twice.
Mmmmm, this death is cool and refreshing. It has the "Thinking man's filter and the Smoking man's taste"
No wait that's Viceroys, sorry.
Who doesn't like mugs? No one doesn't like mugs.
I got yer mudra right here, buddy!

Celebrating Our Nation's Independence
In-store purchases this weekend in Red Hook get an extra bonus.




These vintage magazines are actually lightweight compared to the stuff your 10-year-old regularly views on the interwebs here. They also contain some hard-nosed political criticism - you know: to balance out the sleaziness. Much of the same issues we face today are echoed in the pages of these 70s thru 90s "smut" publications.
delicious retro fragments of the Historical Record.

...and a session of intuitive bodywork broke out
We've had Gay Charleston dance parties manifest themselves, so really nothing is unexpected at what some locals refer to as "that crazy place".
so, yeah, anything is possible.
This evening: the gallery of Kegan Fisher paintings somehow became a sacred space for Felecia's own version of muscle-release bodywork which seemed to help Mollie immensely (and me too: while sprawled on the floor taking these pictures, some pain/cluster thing in my shoulder gave way.)
That's how things happen here in Mollie and B's Happy fun land: flow, recognize, re-flow... always spotting the magic.
So if you are interested in private yoga and/or bodywork sessions, Felecia is available on Tuesdays and Wednesdays here at the Everbrite space, $85 per session.
contact her here:
immeindustries@gmail.com

Kegan Fisher's CUSP OF CONFLUX

CUSP OF CONFLUX
Kegan Fisher
paintings & drawings
June 25 - July 31
CUSP OF CONFLUX explores the moment before everything ends. It seeks to capture time as so incomparably quiet, so impossibly still, that we are unaware if movement persists.
Kegan Fisher's new collection of paintings and drawings is composed of works constructed around horizon lines, tight as skin stretched around sockets, full of memory and yesterday. Worlds are full of elemental structures that have long outlived their architects. Skies droop like wet cotton, with clouds hung up to dry.
Fisher's artwork encapsulates the point at which development has ceased, cities are empty, and we stand as voyeurs, witness to a silent future.
OPENING RECEPTION
