Deep gratitude to all of the amazing vendors who made the on June 14th a smash success! As a gift shop and gallery which exclusively featured local artisans our have always been the most important part of Handmade. We are no longer a gift shop and gallery but the good news is everyone you’ve ever shopped with at Hector Handmade is a local artist who would love your continued support even without our sweet lil shop! We do have a couple pieces of furniture left if you were there and hand your eye on something e-mail [email protected]. And you can continue to experience fine art at Stonecat just down the road all summer long with Jennifer Byrd Rubacky’s Art Show made possible in part by the QuickARTS grant program administered by The ARTS Council of the Southern Finger Lakes and funded by the Community Foundation of Elmira-Corning and the Finger Lakes, Inc. Jennifer has two sizes of framed fine art photography on display and for sale, two sizes of matted prints and note cards too. Swing by Stonecat for local art and farm to table food!

Thanks to all who made it out to Jennifer Byrd Rubacky’s Artist Reception at Stonecat last week! ’s fine art photography remains throughout the restaurant for the rest of the summer as Hector Handmade presents this showing of local fine art in a new (for us) location that’s open to the public and intends to connect us all with art, nature and the local cultural that celebrates both! Enjoy fine art photography, a farm to table meal, local wine and beer and the quintessential Finger Lakes community experience all under one roof!

The local beauty captured by Jennifer Byrd Rubacky’s photography showcases much of what we all love here in the Finger Lakes, nature, growth and serenity. Tour the Stonecat Cafe to experience the connective powers of local art, farm to table food and craft beverages.
