As you walk down the halls of Selden Market, you'll see many flourishing small businesses including Sugar & Grace Co., a delightfully warm and welcoming candle shop that envelops you in calming and unique aromas.

Erica Parham, the owner and mastermind behind Sugar & Grace Co., set out on her journey three years ago to create a space where she could use her creativity to help others. After battling with painful headaches herself, Erica saw an opportunity to educate and help others on the dangers of toxins in candles which can spark headaches, respiratory issues and allergies. “I am nurturing with passion. I feel I am still helping people by educating them on soy candles.”

A local favorite, Corner Gallery, is Reed & Associates Marketing's next Business Spotlight!

-

"Tucked away on a modest street off of Colley Avenue, Corner Gallery is an art gallery turned event space that feels both intimate and high class.

The waterfront view is the first thing you might notice when arriving at Corner Gallery, followed by the grand, string-lit tree that greets you with liveliness as you approach the entrance.

Anne describes the space as “the perfect place for the party or gathering you do not want to have in your home.”
