Colors & Cocktails: The Mobile Art Party

10/03/2026

Hey Colors & Cocktails: The Mobile Art Party Family! Could you please help re-establish the Downtown Kalamazoo Collective facebook presence? Like, Follow, Share this post and encourage your friends to do the same to stay up to date on all things happening downtown!

Next Saturday, October 10th 12-4PM is Boos in the Zoo!!!

🚨 WE NEED YOUR HELP, KALAMAZOO! 🚨

This page is new, but Downtown Kalamazoo Collective is not.

Unfortunately, our original page with more than 5,000 followers was commandeered, and ultimately deleted. That means we're starting over from ZERO. 😩

And that's where YOU come in.

👉 Follow this page.
👉 Share this post.
👉 Invite your friends to follow us.

Help us reconnect with the 5,000+ people who were following along before, and introduce DKC to a whole bunch of new people while we're at it!

PS Watch for a new logo, soon. We're working with a local artist to capture what we're all about.

🤩 Loooooved getting to have lunch with the incredible CEO of Girl Scouts Heart of Michigan, Brenna!! Always grateful for my time with this amazing woman! 💗

Last month, I gave a speech about something I’ve really been trying to live by: stop “shoulding.”

“We should get together!”
“We should grab lunch!”
“We should catch up!”

Life is short and precious. Stop saying we should and make the plans. Make time for the incredible people in your life. Brenna, thank you for carving out time for me!! 💗

And while we’re at it… support local wherever and whenever you can!!

We had an amazingly delicious lunch at Toba, and my beautiful dress is from the late Adrianne’s Boutique. 💕

Shop the stores. Eat at the restaurants. Take the classes. Share the posts. Tell your friends. Keep showing up for the small businesses you want to see stay in business! 💗

And tonight is the PERFECT night to do just that! 🎨✨ Art Hop is tonight from 5–8 PM, and Colors & Cocktails will be staying open until 9 PM! Come downtown, explore, support local artists + businesses, and make a night of it!

Make the plans. Support your friends. Shop local. Stop “shoulding.” 💗
