As I look back on the past two and a half years, one thing stands out above everything else: the people of and who show up to support Historic Downtown Neosho 💛
From day one, I was welcomed, encouraged, supported, and genuinely cheered on by fellow business owners, neighbors, and this community as a whole. The way downtown businesses show up for one another, collaborate, cross-promote, and truly get along is something special, and not something I take for granted✨
Running a brick-and-mortar taught me a lot, including that it may not be my long-term path.
But for the time I was here, this experience was made as wonderful as possible because of the people around me. The friendships, the encouragement, the shared wins, the understanding: it all mattered more than you know 😌
And to everyone who came out for our final evening, who stopped by, shared kind words, supported the artists, and helped send the gallery off in such a warm, meaningful way, THANK YOU 🥰 You truly gave this space the kind of goodbye it deserved.
Thank you, Downtown Neosho, for accepting me, supporting me, and making this season such a meaningful one. I’ll always be grateful for my time here and for the community that made it so special.
Now, stay tuned as this page shifts from Gallery to Studio over the next few months. I’ve got exciting news for my pottery journey and I can’t wait to share it all with you as it unfolds 😁❤️
✨Here’s to 2026 and a great new season to come 🎉
- with love and a grateful, full heart, Cathleen
