My 8 x 8 “Scenes of Memphis” canvases are featured in their Holiday Gift Guide this season. These can now be purchased at A. Schwab’s on Beale Street in downtown Memphis or from my website (www.karenpulferfocht.com).
These are perfect for grouping.
Schwab’s is a really fun place to visit, shop, and have an ice cream drink at their soda fountain. A. Schwab is the oldest surviving business on Beale Street. The store also has a few of my cards and a large selection of my Blues Coasters, always popular Memphis gifts.
Memphis developer Henry Turley and Kemmons Wilson Companies have developed a 105 year old property in the South Main neighborhood of Memphis. Together they renovated and reopened The Central Station, part of Curio Collection by Hilton, this week.
Turley, who is known for developing “livable neighborhoods” said he wanted people who travel into Memphis by train to have a nice place to stay.
The hotel, which will showcase Memphis music, has a Listening Lounge/Bar— Eight and Sand, which contains an expansive collection of curated vinyl records spun by a local DJ.
The location is in the artsy South Main neighborhood of Memphis which hosts a street festival the last Friday of every month called Trolley Night.
The Arcade Restaurant and Earnestine and Hazels, a famous dive bar, and many other bars and eateries are within walking distance of the hotel. Saturday mornings there is a Farmers Market next door spring to fall.
Within a mile guests can visit the National Civil Rights Museum, Beale Street, a movie theater, The Orpheum Theater, Gus’s World Famous Fried Chicken, The Blues Hall of Fame, Old Dominick Distillery and many other Memphis attractions.
