blending coffee culture and community

closed our shop at 609 South 10th Street as of Friday April 17, 2009. Over the past several years, we've given our all (and more) to the local and extended artist communities we've served with pleasure, but find we no longer have the resources to subsidize our beloved atelier while advocating economic recovery in Elliot Park and East Downtown. Our Grand Finale is scheduled for Friday 4/17. Meanwhile, please stop by for a visit as we wind down over the next several days. Join us for coffee and treats... buy some books and gifts and participate in special events we have planned to celebrate and remember the good times. We'll keep the site up and post updates about future plans as they become available. Thank you all for touching our lives! ~shar and di The Grand Finale Event combining our neighborhood and extended artists communities for one last time Visit our e.p. atelier facebook group page our joint email: shar and di at epatelier@epatelier.com Farewell 3rd Place Block Club Meeting ![]() Recently awarded a Building Blocks Award from the 1st Precinct Minneapolis Police Department, our block club was named by Crime Prevention Analyst, Luther Krueger, in recognition of urban sociologist Ray Oldenburg’s philosophy that Third Places such as main streets, pubs, cafes, and coffeehouses are the heart of a community's social vitality and the foundation of a functioning democracy. They promote social equality by leveling the status of guests, provide a setting for grassroots politics, create habits of public association, and offer psychological support to individuals and communities. During this meeting we will discuss alternative Third Place locations to carry the torch for safety in our neighborhood. Crime Prevention Specialist, Renee Allen, leads this discussion. | |
