If you are an artist looking for wall space to share your work with the community, consider Press Coffee! Keep in mind, we are a coffee shop first, but when 62% of Americans drink coffee every day, our space exposes your work to a wide range of people. A show typically lasts five weeks with an evening set aside for a reception, catered by us with coffee and treats, to allow a closer look and conversation.
