A reader emails that she spotted a black and white pit bull (1-3 years old) this morning lying on the lawn on the corner of 48th and Hazel. She tried to get close to him and get a photo but he briskly trotted away headed west up Cedar ave. The dog seems very friendly, but scared. He’s not wearing any collar.

Please leave a comment below if you have any information about this dog or if you spot him in the neighborhood.

 
After nine years near the Penn campus on 40th Street, The Marvelous, a music and musician supply store, is moving into the location formerly occupied by Wake Up Yoga (4916 Baltimore Ave.).

Milan Marvelous, the owner, said that they’re planning to open the doors on Baltimore Avenue on July 12. “We’re totally stoked, because the new space is simply luscious … We’re looking forward to our new neighbors – Dock St, Firehouse Bikes, Elena’s, Satellite Cafe, Vix, Mariposa, etc.,” said Milan.

This week, the store is throwing a big “moving away” sale (July 2 – July 7), with everything marked down up to 50% off. The store’s last day at 208 S. 40th St. will be Saturday July 7.

On Friday June 29 this cat got out at the intersection of 50th and Baltimore. It is mostly black with hints of orange and brown running through her. Her predominant feature is that she has a split face. She looks like a two face cat, half her face being black and the other half being orange with hints of white.

If you’ve seen her, please call 267-315-7754 or email GaryAltmark@gmail.com.

This enormous, gorgeous Akita shepherd was found near 49th and Chester. He looked hungry and was given food and water. The SPCA was informed and are on their way. Email Max at octobermax@gmail.com if you know this dog.

Seeds Gallery is coming to Baltimore Avenue soon and is seeking artists who would like to display their work for the opening event at the end of July. Seeds Gallery is a modern art studio with a focus on local artists and represents emerging and established career artists in all media and styles. Currently, the gallery is showcasing artwork collections throughout the city – in local restaurants, coffee shops, yoga studios, libraries and bookstores.

The gallery’s mission is to create a networking forum for local artists and to help seed them in the community. Also, they are trying to go beyond presenting artist’s work to help educate them in business practices such as risk and liabilities, contract management, financial management, product pricing, and marketing.

If you are a local artist and are looking to get your work out there, drop an email to artists@seedsgallery.com. For more information, visit www.seedsgallery.com.
