Richard Hanna in Stars In Their Eyes

And, Jim....briefly.
It was fun having customers come in yesterday who saw the shop (and Jim) on Stars in Their Eyes.  Well done, Richard, the transformation was unreal.

Jim promised the talented Sophomore class back in 2007, that he'd make it back for their graduation. Well, we're here and their Senior Show was amazing.

Catch One of Our Artists

Check out Stars In Their Eyes this season (airs Tuesday nights at 8:30) on TV One.  One of our regular artists, Richard Hannah, is competing this season (not sure which night) and if he hasn't hit the cutting room floor, Jim should get 3 more seconds of fame as there was some filming done in our shop.
