The Cozy Corner: Love Lines

The Cozy Corner: Love Lines ✨
Co-hosted by Bri Simpson of Bi Simpson Art and Micki McKinzie of Hibiscus Greenhouse

Love Lines explores intimacy, care, memory, and the quiet ways love manifests in everyday life.

This iteration of The Cozy Corner leans into warmth and presence. The featured artwork by Bri Simpson traces love through family moments, shared rituals, and emotional closeness woven into ordinary days. Set within a cozy, café-style environment, this experience invites you not just to view the work, but to sit with it.

Handcrafted savory pastries by Micki McKinzie of Hibiscus Greenhouse anchor the space. At the same time, mini creative activations encourage slow participation—gentle moments of coloring, reflection, and making that extend the spirit of the artwork.

🖼️ What to Expect:
• Dreamy artwork from the Love Lines series
• Fresh savory pastries and warm drinks in a cozy art café setting
• A free Café & Color corner with coloring pages and mini creative activations
