Artizanns

Gifts from the Finger Lakes

The Finger Lakes overflows with artists and creators, and visitors can find works from over 250 of them at the gallery at Artizanns. This highly eclectic art gallery features many works from across all kinds of mediums such as pottery, hand-blown glass, wood works, sculptures, metal, paintings, photography, jewelry, fabric art, allnatural candles, soaps and sundries, local musicians and literary artists’ works, plus a pantry full of wonderful food confections produced locally. Artizanns’ two stories of works for gifts and home accessories feature works from artists like George Wallace (photography on canvas), Mark Groaning (metal and glass works), Kelly Ormsby (jewelry), and Daryll Abraham (watercolor paintings), just to mention a few. While there are many regular artists at the gallery, Artizanns continues to bring in exciting energy with fresh pieces by new and established Finger Lakes artists.

Owners David Dial (himself an artist) and Mark Poppleton (an accomplished actor, often appearing at Bristol Valley Theatre), who began visiting Naples in 2006 and moved to the village in 2016, enjoyed Artizanns for years before founder Suzanne Farley, sought to retire. The partners did not want Artizanns to be lost to the community, and they had always dreamed of owning a business on Main Street, Naples. David and Mark simply could not resist this incredible opportunity. Under their influence, Artizanns has continued to develop a browser-friendly experience with its artistinfluenced spaces and wide variety of items ranging from fun décor pieces to high-end jewelry, from $2.50 to $8,000. “Artizanns is everything,” said Poppleton. “Not simply fancy art and gifts, not high brow or low brow, it is full of positive energy and talent from all across the Finger Lakes.”

“We want our guests to see new things and fall in love with the amazing artists of the Finger Lakes,” shared Poppleton. “We love working with local artists, and the Naples community has been so supportive, shopping local and embracing everything we are doing here.” Although the gallery is open daily year-round, except Tuesdays, Mark and David are also working to make one-of-a-kind works from the artists they represent available for online purchase when they launch their online store soon. Poppleton added, “We are also planning to start a ‘Featured New Artist’ space, and we welcome you to come in, browse, and be inspired!”

Joseph’s has long been a local treasure. More than 65 years ago, Leonard and Leona Joseph courageously left their careers to purchase what was to become Joseph’s Wayside Market. Their bold investment paid off, putting their three sons through college and becoming a much-loved Naples tradition. Now proudly in its second and third generations, the family-owned and operated business is run by Leonard and Leona’s youngest son, Richard (Jake) Joseph who first started working there when he was 12 years old. Under his leadership, the market has grown to include three greenhouses, an in-store bakery, and in 2015, his wife Nancy’s Wine & Gift Shop. Today, Jake Joseph’s sons, Rick and Jason, find great fulfillment in continuing their family legacy.

“At Joseph’s Wayside Market, we continue my parents’ traditions of being sincere, friendly, showing old-fashioned courtesy, providing high quality goods, and getting to know our customers by name,” said Jake Joseph. “This is our passion, and those are the practices we base our business on. We work hard to ensure our customers enjoy everything about their shopping experience with us.”

Bamby

Beautiful and unique décor with you in mind

Along Route 21 among the rolling hillsides of the Naples Valley sits Bamby Gift Shop, the name, a reflection of beautiful creatures seen frequently during the various seasons. For over 30 years, this second generation, family-owned business has been a Naples tradition, open seasonally - when possible – from mid-June through December. Bamby Gift Shop showcases a wide variety of quality décor and gifts during various holidays, special events and all occasions, even if it’s just to treat yourself!

Having been closed for the season last year – a precautionary measure followed by many small businesses due to Covid-19, the Bamby Gift shop is brimming with a beautiful selection of gifts including fine textiles, cards, collectibles, nautical and primitive décor, designer jewelry, etched glassware, unusual wind chimes, beautiful nightlights, hand-carved figurines, and much more. Prioritizing each customer’s health and safety, the immaculately clean shop is now equipped with sanitizer dispensers. Customers are requested to continue health practices as outlined by the State, including wearing masks, distancing, and following all safety guidelines.

To the owner, Barb Weinhart, ensuring her customers’ safety as much as possible is simply a part of the shop’s long-standing tradition: the customer comes first. Originally owned and operated by her parents, the gift shop continues to hold true to its high-quality standards, providing old favorites alongside an exciting and constantly changing assortment of treasures. Whether browsing for yourself or selecting a gift for someone, Bamby is your go-to for something truly special and original.

“The shop speaks for itself,” said Barb. “We are happy to help you find exactly what you would like, and we hope you love it as much as we do. We welcome you to stop by and discover new delights among our many collections.” Due to flexible days and hours, please call ahead, especially when traveling some distance. Barb Weinhart gives back to the community as a proud supporter of Purple Haze Finger Lakes Horse Rescue and in addition, encourages you to shop small businesses whenever possible.
