Singer Ashley Cox of Professional Victims, Fondu and solo career fame has opened a shipping container boutique, called Black Whisker Vintage, at The Yard in Manlius, New York.

In it, along with a partner called Dave, they sell vintage items to include accessories, toys, trinkets and tchotchkes. It is curated with an upbeat and fun flair.

The store is only open on weekends, I believe, but Sunday may be the best time to go, because at 3:00 PM on Sundays, she hosts an open mike in the little stage area adjacent to the shipping container stores. So fun!

The Yard is located at 604 East Seneca Street, Manlius, New York 13104.

It is branded as an artisan collective nestled on the land once occupied by the Hale lumber yard (I wonder if they would let me metal detect it? OMG!)

Call (315) 604-8064 for more information including hours of operation.
