Ready or not, here we go!
- SHOP—Our shop is not a thrift store. Nor is it an antique store. Merchandise items are not previously used (unless they've been embellished in a meaningful way)
- FOOD—Our venue is not an eatery. While we do not have a kitchen, food may be brought in
- FUNDING—Neither Whimsicalitea Arts nor Studio 14 are run for profit. We are a registered 501c3 philanthropy funded by donors, and all monies are put into operations, programming, and financial assistance for artists (creative individuals)
- STAFF—All of our workers are volunteers. That means none of us gets paid. (Please keep this in mind when interacting with our heart-centered workers)
- DISCOUNTS—We are generally not able to give "discounts to friends or family" because we have a board of directors to answer to, and they expect us to pay the bills with the money we bring in
- AFTER-HOURS—Our venue is available for use from 8am until 10pm daily with "shop hours" of 10am-6pm Monday through Saturday
- We are closed Sundays for special events, either onsite or elsewhere
- We do not have a public restroom. The village provides 2 public restrooms—one in the German Restaurant, the other in the Biergarten
- Parking is free in either of 2 lots
- To date, we have not charged writers to submit their work to our anthologies. We expect that to change in 2026 when we host our first writing "contest" (that will culminate in an anthology)
- It's true, we have a pirate on staff
