A Fashion Pop-Up Tonight :: Retail Therapy 4-18-2024

Skate board lessons start this week! See below in ALBB's Kids Classes Guide for these details and more. The Beacon Stride For Life 5K is THIS Sunday! Details in ALBB's 5K Races Guide! Both Guides are open for business sponsorship now!

The East End of Main Street is having a moment. It's the 2nd Anniversary for Erika Ricottilli's SANT-de-La Rosa Hair Collection, a salon sanctuary specializing in an array of customized hair services. For her anniversary, Erika is celebrating with the East End to involve several other businesses. "It's Beacon. We are a collective, Beacon is a Collective. We are are on the East End, our own little Beauty District." According to ALBB's Beauty Guide, she is correct in her observation!

Many beauty destinations are in the East End, from a brow bar, laser hair removal, acupuncture, relaxing and healthy tea and so much more (yes, the new cigar store also just opened and isn't healthy, but is premium!)

Erika graciously walks us through what is about to happen in this exclusive interview, so give it a watch and feel the excitement.

FRIDAY
5pm: Fashion PopUp Show inside Erika's collective salon
7pm: Fashion Show!! Starting from and styled by Wanderlux Style , watch 12 models walk down the sidewalk toward the Dummy Light, then cross over for a dramatic Crosswalk Walk.
8:15pm: Hip Hop Dance lesson from Passion The Adult Dance Studio

Special Note: This event is newsworthy enough on its own, in that it’s a rare fashion event happening on the East End, but SANT de La Rosa insisted on paying for Event advertising. Because that’s how much of a baddy boss she is, and believes in supporting the community and local media. Thank you!!! 🏽🏼🏼🥳🤩
