t the point we decided to make downtown Brunswick our focus, naturally we reached out to h2o creative group to help us get started. Boy, did they come through and we’re so appreciative for their contributions. Not only did Lance Sabbe open his home as part of our “Old Town, New Vibe” section, the lovely ladies you see at Daddy Cate’s Coffee in “Brunswick: Morning, Noon & Night” are part of h2o’s dynamic creative team.
response to that issue has blown us away! When Ben Slade, the former Executive Director of the St. Simons Land Trust and the Chair of the Board of Directors for Forward Brunswick, tells you that it might be the best issue of Elegant Island Living ever, that’s heady praise!

Anne Goodstein is equally creative outside of her work at h2o. After the current exhibit of intriguing interactive photographic art by Nathaniel Thompson at SoGlo Gallery closes on April 9, an exhibit entitled “Hope” featuring works by Anne and her husband Christophe will be on display there. Come out to the opening reception on Wednesday, April 13 from 5:30-7:30 p.m. to meet her in person, if you haven’t already. Some other
new art we’re excited to share is vibrant work by Kevin Bongang that now beautifies the plain concrete building you saw in “Moving Brunswick Forward.” Owner Kelly Hnatt of BuildWise Project Management shared a photo of the new mural (above). Turn to our Social Scene gallery on pages 86-87 in this issue to see photos from the ribbon-cutting at Queen Square, March’s First Friday fun, and Tipsy’s 10th Anniversary Street Party. Continue to keep up with downtown events and live music by visiting EIL’s online calendar, “I’m With the Band” listings, and by following our social media accounts. As always, we encourage you to check the Marketplace Directory on our website to see listings including maps, social media links, and other information for the businesses you see in our pages. Elegant Island Living is proud to be a part of this community – on both sides of the causeway!
