There’s exciting news from the Delmar Loop! Two retail businesses have opened just in time for holiday shopping. Designer Danielle Beckham has opened House of Sheabella at 6161 Delmar, Suite 101. Ms. Beckham designs gowns and dresses. House of Sheabella is right down the block from Savvi Formalwear and Posh Shoe Bar, making the 6100 block your onestop-shop for your next formal event or if you just feel like getting gussied up after wearing your yoga pants every day since March.
The Wizard’s Wagon, formerly in U. City, has moved two blocks east to 6178 Delmar (formerly Great Rivers Greenway office).
The Wizard’s Wagon is the place to get your comics, games, and collectibles.
They are the game experts and will help you find a new game for the family over the holidays. Find them on Facebook: www.facebook.com/TheWizardsWagon. Both House of Sheabella and The Wizard’s Wagon are locallyindependently-owned which adds to the list of businesses to visit this holiday season for Small Business Saturday, November 28th. Small businesses, retail and restaurants, are relying on your support this winter.
We hope you will venture over to the Delmar Loop and order take-out from your favorite restaurants or take care of some of the items on your holiday list. Curbside pick-up is offered by many of the businesses. Our website, www.visittheloop.com has a full directory of businesses. Events are going to look a little different this year. Normally, we wouldn’t talk about how the sausage is made but this year isn’t normal and we are working with the City of St. Louis to ensure any activities are safe for all involved.
In the meantime, if you are looking to get out of the house, visit the Planet Walk, a great way to teach the kids about the solar system. Also, the St. Louis Walk of Fame is always an inspiring way to stretch your legs and learn about notable St. Louisans. Last but certainly not least, The Pageant is offering a series of concerts tailored to the pandemic.
The concert venue’s “Glimmer of Normalcy” Series features local favorites performing with limited seating to ensure social distancing. Find them on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ThePageantSTL for concert announcements. Stay safe and healthy!
