There has been lots of activity around the changing of the years.  It has been hard to keep up with the absolute whirlwind.  Beatnik has been changing fast and growing up.  We purchased a new building, hosted our 5th annual craft fair, began a new era of gallery exhibitions, worked and worked some more.  There have been lots of blood sweat and tears in the past couple months but we are highly motivated to push on and continue to build our dream.  I can't say thank you enough to all of the people who have helped along the way.  We couldn't possibly be here without continued love and support from our friends and family.  Please drop by and chat any time.  We love our city and our community and will be staying for a long time!
Love and Thanks,
The beatniks

JAZZ NIGHT

 Jazz night at Beatnik is the perfect way to unwind and forget about the wild and mad world for an evening.  It's a unique and moving live music experience unlike anything else around.  The casual atmosphere is perfect for catching up with old friends and making new ones.  It's an intimate and cozy night where you can share some laughs and hear some world class live music.  I can't say enough about the work from Jeff Alkire and Mindy Giles to organize this awesome event and line up these top notch artists.  Every month I am amazed by the talent and passion of the musicians.  Every month I get excited when 3rd Thursday is around the corner.
