Ever come across a place that makes you doubt how well you know your city? I think I'd heard that we had an antiques mall called Memory Den, but never pair attention because those places tend to be very same-y. I've been to the one in Sellwood and so on. I wound up walking past it yesterday because my plans for the day got not derailed, but stuck on the rails. The streetcars were down, so I just walked all the way to Guardian Game and back, somewhere between 4-5 miles.
Holy hell, not only is it huge and fully of resellers with their own vibes, it has a coffee shop, a library, a bar, pool tables in the back, and a large area for local artists to exhibit/sell/make work. There was stuff in there I hadn't seen in years and things that made me feel legit nostalgic. These photos don't do justice to the size.
Sign outside the library said 'Thank you for not discussing the outside world'
I recognized one of the artists. I've got two pieces from a ceramics artist here. They are NSFW so I'll put them under a cut.
I like this piece, but am not into it being on a plate:
What I've got from him are mugs so they double as storage.
