Music and Art enjoyed by all.
High Springs, FL - The shop with lovely things form the Emerald Isle...
was the place to be for a delightful evening of Irish Music and Art. A
feast for the senses best describes a panoramic look at this unusual shop. There
is fine crystal, china, heirloom linen, delectable morsels of Irish origin, art
for all tastes, music to calm, cheer or inspire, gifts galore and hospitality as
warm as a Galway Bay breeze. The owner, Ellen Fitzpatrick, offers the
highest quality of Irish merchandise hand selected during a couple of trips each
year to Ireland. Ellen has combined the friendly southern charm of relaxing,
visiting and shopping along High Springs First Avenue with the unique blend of gifts
with the customer's convenience in mind. The shop is filled with original
art work and hand made items of the highest quality. It is truly a delight to
visit this shop. With each purchase Ellen is eager to tell you all about he
heritage, history and folk lore that goes along with your selection.
The evenings affair included the enchanting tunes of musicians Virginia Boone
and Larry Reeves, of the Blue Druids, Gainesville's own Celtic stylist.
Also on display were wonderful pastels by Carol Baier. These
inspirational paintings depict the spiritual side of the artist. In
addition to painting, Carol writes poetry. With each painting or poem
there is a touching tale to go along.
