Colorado Pure Essentials Launch Party

Studio 12 Gallery is proud to host the launch of Colorado Pure Essentials Thursday, February 9th from 6pm-9pm.


 A special note from them to you:


Colorado Pure Essentials was founded in Denver Colorado in 2011, by Colorado native Destiny Faithe. Our company is based on the principle that positive change can start at a very basic level. We believe that small business is good for our community, and that natural products are a healthy and responsible way to take care of our bodies as well as our planet.

 

So many beauty and personal hygiene products in the market today contain harsh chemicals and artificial ingredients. Colorado Pure Essentials offers pure, handcrafted products that are of the highest quality. Our products are handmade with natural ingredients you might even recognize like olive oil, shea butter, and cocoa butter. We NEVER use synthetic perfumes or artificial colors. Our products are scented and colored with essential oils and natural botanicals.

 

We make a variety of products; Solid Lotions, Massage Bars & Lip Balm: Made with simple, natural ingredients including coconut oil, shea butter and beeswax. Our products range between $3 and $9. They come in Lavender Gin, Cinnamon Orange, Green Tea, Oatmeal Cookie, and Peppermint Pine. We’ll have a limited edition of Chocolate Love in honor of Valentine’s day.

 

Join us and Studio 12 Gallery as we introduce a brand new small business to the Denver area. We'll have samples to try, special prices and hor d'oeuvres.

The Tangible: We have 900 square feet on the main floor and an additional 350 sq.ft loft. Our 14-foot ceilings give the gallery an open feeling and our two large front windows and three skylights allow for an abundance of natural light to flow through the space.  We also have track lighting, a fantastic sound system, and free parking.  

The gallery comfortably accommodates 60-75 people, less for a seated event.

Plans for the New Year

Happy New Year! We are excited about the different shows and programs we will be presenting this year. We have an exciting fashion art show lined up for February, we are working with the University of Colorado Art Department to host a printmaker from Mexico, there will be an international glass bead show, and so much more! We’re getting excited just thinking about them!

Sean will be offering more classes for painting ceramics as well. Our ornament making workshop gathered so much attention we are working on a new way to offer these throughout the year. The first one will be in February, and we’re excited to see how it goes. More details on that class are on our workshop section of our website.


These are just a few of the plans we have in the works. We welcome the New Year and all the challenges and excitement it is sure to bring. Happy New Years and we look forward to embracing the coming months with you.
