Sweet Charity is honored to carry the beautiful work of several local and national artists: Eigen Arts Pottery, Aviva Stanhoff, Swigg, SUM, Jill Bliss, SpotBear, Working Class Studio, Wooster & Prince, New Arcadia Studio, Waste Not Paper, EIEIO, Kokoleo and Jackie Shapiro of Tepper Jackson and French Bull fame to name a few.

We are thrilled to show off the talents of Brooklyn expat (now, alas, living in San Fran) craft-creator extraordinaire Kelli Ronci. Her sock puppies and bunnies are the cutest hand-crafted creatures you ever laid eyes on! We're also delighted to carry an assortment of adorable onesies by Brooklynite Dari Litchman, aka Papi's Mami as well as unique handcrafted jewelry by Argentinian-born Carla Bruno.

We have the honor of showcasing work by Park Slope resident Melissa Diaz, a talented multimedia artist who received her BFA in painting and is currently earning her MPS in Art Therapy from Pratt. This particular series, small works from past installations, focuses on growth, transitions and coexistence. “Paralleling my framework as an artist and therapist, my art helps me form a relationship with the surroundings and the viewer

And last but not least, a special shout-out for Nate Chura's first children's book GEORGE AND IRA, a delightful tale of two Brooklyn cats coping with a new baby in the house-- an excellent way to tackle the issue of a new sibling with your own children.

Thank you everyone for sharing your amazing gifts!
