If you’d like to visit the cats in our lounge, you can make a reservation here. Pieces will be available for sale. 10% of each art sale is donated to our parent non-profit rescue. As always, we donate 20% of the profits from our food, drink and merch sales back to our partner rescues. Enjoy art, grab a drink, help cats. Katie Khau Show Description Big Nostalgia celebrates the little things that played a big role in our childhood memories. Phone charms, digital pets, and other objects are represented as oversized sculptures and in prints to remind us how much bigger they were in our hands and the larger role they played in our young lives. Exchanging trinkets, making friendship bracelets, and showing off your collection were ways to build connection and share parts of your identity as a child in the 90s. Big Nostalgia is a throwback to a simpler time, before social media, when what’s cool was up to you and your friends.
