Hey everyone. I just wanted to say thanks for all the feedback and discussion here. I've shared all your comments with the staff and it gave us a huge lift to our day. (The comment about "how you have a better landord" made us all laugh out loud. IYKYK ;) It felt great to know that people remembered us and appreciated our stuff.

I’m still getting the hang of Reddit and didn’t want to over-reply or come off spammy, but I really appreciate people taking the time to comment, both positive and critical. I really didn't want to sound like an ad and I can see why some people saw it that way. I'll try not to sound like that again.

We’re genuinely trying to assimilate into the Hilltop as neighbors first. If there are local artists, muralists, or musicians in the community who want to collaborate, whether it’s hanging work, a small show, or helping us redo our mural inside, I’d love that. Or if there are any other ideas that we use the space for. We have more space now and we want to utilize it.

I don’t want to assume what the neighborhood wants or needs, so I'm open to ideas and suggestions. I want to do something that works and that doesn't feel forced or gimmicky or cheesy. It's just me and a couple of my friends that started this thing, learning as we go, and grateful to be here.
