This post is about the business of art, especially the business called Kaweah River Trading Company.

There’s a new kid on the block.

That’s a weird old cliche. I wonder where it came from. . .

Kaweah River Trading Company is a brand new store in Three Rivers with a cool name and logo. (Hudson River Trading – anyone remember this?)

 

Holly and Erin are selling souvenirs, local food items (honey, olives), locally made soaps and lotions, some antiques (anyone looking for a Coke machine?), tee shirts, caps, cowboy stuff, local maps and visitor information books, jewelry (made by folks they know), pottery, wall art, and my notecards. They have many other good things; those listed here are just from my immediate memory.

41891 Sierra Drive, Three Rivers, Ca

559-561-4095

Open daily, 11 a.m. – 7 p.m.

P.S. If the building seems familiar, it is because it was Sequoia Outdoor Sports, where I painted a mural a handful of years ago.

P.P.S. My notecards are on the front counter, and the store has already placed a second order! Yea! People still write notes to each other by hand!
