There is a new African art and home decorative accents store on First St in Hoboken called Issyra that quietly opened it's doors last month. Tonight is their official grand opening and they are already getting lots of buzz.
Check out their first television news story appearance on Eyewitness News aired yesterday! http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/video?id=8816743
I worked with store owners Issa and wife Rebecca to locate this sweet space in the historic Bank Building on the corner of First St and Clinton.
The store features a wide array of hanging art works and hand crafted pieces as well as jewelry, hand carved furniture and masks are all displayed throughout the stores first and second level downstairs.
I'm so excited for this store to open, it infuses our city with something new and exotic! Many of the art pieces in the store are shipped from Africa so you know you are getting something one of a kind.
The store features both contemporary and traditional artists and are reminiscent of Central and West African culture.
Issyra's Address is 313 1st St, underneath the Bank Building, Hoboken NJ. Store hours are
Mon - Wed 11:00am - 7:00pm Thurs - Sat 11.00am - 9:00pm and Sunday 11:00 - 5:00pm
