about the cover photo

with Samantha Vaughn
of Bird of Paradox Studios

Bird of Paradox Studios, located above The Lettering
Machine at 723 50th Street, was established in late
2018 by a husband and wife team, Joshua and Samantha
Vaughn, Joshua as a tattoo aritst specializing in portrait
work, and Sam with her beautiful photography. Initially
created as an outlet for their talents, BoPS has since
grown and aspires to further expand their artistic
avenues.

Being a private studio, it allows stronger focus on the
client and prevents major distractions from the artwork.
The studio befriends other establishments in the industry
and strays away from making art a competitive business.
The BoPS family continues to grow by bringing on artists
and supporters. Be sure to like Bird of Paradox Studios
on Facebook and contact them for your next tattoo or
photography needs.

At right, Samantha Vaughn and an alternate cover

DT2020-4
by Alexandria Binanti

All right, friends, I have

to say this article may be

a bit different than prior

issues. 2020 has been a

year of challenges.

Challenges to our health,

our economy, to our

beliefs and ideologies;

and even our govern-

ment systems have been

shaken. We have been a

battleground state fight-

ing for elections as if our

lives depend on it; we

were seen on TV as a

city ravaged with vio- photo via Instagram - thecoffeepotkenosha

lence and divisiveness, all while pandemic fears were a constant

worry for both our safety and our freedoms.

But the truth is, great and powerful things can and will take place

in this time. Our city is making a new history. And while I can say

there is still a lot of work to be done as a community, as a people,

and as a city, I can also say there is a lot of hope to be had.

This year has also seen an outpouring of love for our city. When

small businesses were shuttered by Covid-19 closures the shop

small movement grew stronger than ever, gift cards sales flooded,

and take-out/curbside trend became the new norm. When outdoor

dining was allowed, you filled those seats.

It was because of you that many of these small businesses could

survive. And then when the riots came, you were all here. You

cleaned our streets, you boarded up our buildings, painted mes-

sages of hope, donated time, resources, and materials. You came up

with concerts, merchandise, lemonade stands and books...so many

fundraising events all to donate to our recovery campaign. My organ-

ization was able to raise $300,000 dollars to repair damages in

Kenosha. And all of this was done through you.

I want to thank you for all you have done. You are what keeps us

all moving forward. Our city is in a season of change and we are invit-

ing you to be a part of it. Since March, 13 new businesses have

opened their doors, 3 businesses have expanded their footprint, and

we welcomed a new university to our downtown. As you look

through these pages, I come to you now asking for continued sup-

port. Please stop in to these small businesses with your masks to

make a purchase and show your downtown love. As it gets colder,

remember gift cards and takeout from your favorite restaurants. As

you keep your holiday purchases in mind, call your favorite shop to

ask them to pick out your stocking stuffers, splurge on those gift

cards for family and friends, shop childrens’ items that can be gift

wrapped, ask for boutique items, art and more.

When you are supporting these small businesses, you may not

realize it but you are a part of saving our downtown. Know that every

gift card you buy, every small purchase, every share on social media

supporting a local business you make... all of these efforts keep a

store alive, support a family, and give hope for a better tomorrow.

Obviously this is only one small impact on this season of change,

but with you here supporting us, we can keep working

towards making Kenosha the best place to work, play

and live for the future.

how did you get the idea for your business?

“After working in hair salons for over 40 years, and renting chairs inside salons in Downtown
Kenosha for 10 years it was only natural that I try my own place.” - Dawn Bella, Dawn’s Style

Dawn Bella, Dawn’s Style, 633 58th Street “We started out as a consignment shop, selling clothes
mostly. We gradually started selling new items and in
spring of this year when Covid hit we decided to Jennifer Wagner, Duck Duck Goose
Children's Shop, 5811 Sixth Avenue
completely drop the resale portion and focus on unique
and educational toys.”

- Jennifer Wagner, Duck Duck Goose

“I was looking for something different. I noticed women
were coming in and complaining about their bodies, and
how they look and I thought, ‘What these ladies really
need is a good foundation.’
- Sherry Ludwig, Bisou Lingerie

“I started out just helping a friend sell some antique items on Facebook. I told a couple friends
about it and next thing you know other people are asking me to sell items for them and it just
kept growing from there.” - Stacy Juga, Vintage Underground

Sherry Ludwig, Bisou Lingerie, 635 58th
Street

“On a trip I had told my sister if I ever were to open a gift shop I would want it to be a one stop shop where there were a variety
of items for almost everyone and in every price range. This way you can get everyone something at once and not break the bank.”
- Sam Unrath - To & From Gift Shop

what products and services do you provide?

“We have an assortment of products ranging from locally handcrafted home décor items and
jewelry, to refurbished furniture pieces, seasonal displays, and even carry a line of women’s
retail clothing which I’ve picked out myself.” - Cheryl Farrand, Pine Blossom

Cheryl & Gary Farrand, Pine Blossom, 5925 “The best thing about being an independent, locally owned phar-
Sixth Avenue-A macy is that we can pivot and change the items and services we

offer quickly. When COVID began, we already offered home
delivery, but we were quickly able to add curbside pick-up.

We've had requests for curbside flu vaccines, which I can offer
since I do not have a corporate office telling me I cannot do so.”

- Erin Merritt, Modern Apothecary

“Gorgeous lingerie sizes Small-4X, massage products, games, Erin Merritt, Modern Apothecary,
bachelorette, and much more!” 4924 Seventh Avenue
- Laurel Paschte, In the Garden of Eden

“We are a full service florist. Weddings, funerals, and basically all occasions. Flowers always
make a wonderful gift. When you want to brighten someone's day or get something special for
yourself. “ - Lyna Postuchow, A Summers Garden Florist

Kevin & Lyna Postuchow, A Summers “We sell products made for cats and dogs. We focus on a more holistic approach in feeding

anyone recall when Bell

the building was already
scheduled for the wrecking

1837 by Charles Durkee it
was one of the first store
buildings in what was then
known as Southport. The
three story building had sever-
al uses over its 94-year histo-
ry, including the Southport
Post Office, a grain ware-
house, a school, and several
retail outlets. When it was
demolished, it was replaced
by a modern store and office
building housing an all new
Bell Clothing Store. It is now
the location of Anytime

BoPS (Bird of Paradox Studios)
was established by a husband
and wife team, Joshua and
Samantha Vaughn. Initially creat-
ed as an outlet for their tattooing
and photography, BoPS has
since grown and aspires to fur-
ther expand their artistic
avenues. Being a private studio,
it allows stronger focus on the client and prevents major
distractions from the artwork. The studio befriends other
establishments in the industry and strays away from mak-
ing art a competitive business. The BoPS family continues
to grow by bringing on artists and supporters.
