Happy Mother’s Day!

Today, we’re sending love to the mothers, mother figures, grandmothers, aunties, caregivers, bonus moms, chosen family, and nurturers who show up in ways big and small.

We’re also holding space for those grieving, those navigating complicated relationships, those longing to be mothers, those mothering through loss, and everything in between.

Last night was so much fun.

Much love to our friends at Yelp Boston and the Yelp Elites for showing up and showing love. For so many guests, it was their first time in the shop, which always means a lot.

The best part was hearing people say they’d be back.

And thank you to Boston Flower Company for adding such a beautiful touch with the bouquet bar and helping bring the experience to life.

If you haven’t made it to the Allan Rohan Crite exhibitions yet, this is your sign.

A comprehensive exploration of the work of artist Allan Rohan Crite (1910–2007) is on view through two exhibitions: Allan Rohan Crite: Urban Glory at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and Allan Rohan Crite: Griot of Boston at the Boston Athenaeum. Both exhibitions close tomorrow, January 19.

Crite dedicated his life’s work to depicting the multicultural, multiracial, multigenerational community of Boston, especially Lower Roxbury and the South End. His art celebrates everyday beauty while also documenting the hard truths of neighborhood change.

As the exhibit shares: “The government called it urban renewal; Crite called it urban removal.”

For MLK Day (Jan 19), the Gardner Museum is offering free admission (reservations required), and the day includes storytelling, community conversations, interactive art-making, and live music, making it feel like an experience, not just a museum visit.

And if you want to bring a piece of it home, we carry the Allan Rohan Crite exhibit catalog at Bos. Shop South End.

If you love Boston, art, and neighborhood history, don’t miss this one.

For those who may not know, it is currently Kwanzaa, a modern cultural observance created in the United States and grounded in African and pan-African values within the Black diaspora. Kwanzaa is observed from December 26 through January 1 and centers on seven principles that emphasize unity, purpose, and collective responsibility.

Today’s principle is Ujamaa — Cooperative Economics, which calls on us to intentionally support and sustain Black-owned businesses.

A few weeks ago, this principle came to life when the Global Visionaries, a team of travel business owners from Connecticut, stopped by the Bos. Shop while visiting Boston.

There were about 10 of them—coordinated, intentional, and clear in purpose. They came specifically to support Black-owned businesses and wanted to keep that support going.

As always, the question came up:
“Where else can we go next?”

That question alone reflects the spirit of Ujamaa.

Grateful to the Global Visionaries for their intentional support and to Frugal Bookstore for making the connection.
