Mity Nice

We are glad to return to the Ann Arbor Street Art Fair, The Original this year, in a new place. We will be near Hill Auditorium on North University. Stop by for your made-in-Detroit vegan treats- and tip generously! Every dollar in the tip jar goes to a local charity, because believe in being Mity Nice! (This photo is from 2018, when Maddie Teece and Kate Olson worked with us.)

We are excited to be back at the Ann Arbor Art Fair today, Friday and Saturday. We're in "The Original" and in our usual spot on North University between Hill Auditorium and the Michigan League right at the entrance to Ingalls Mall. And we have our usual made-in-Detroit vegan Italian ices.
This year, some of our young workers have experience with Mity Nice from the 4th of July Parade! Thank you TeaHaus for the enduring friendship - and connections. Please stop by and say hi!

Anyone feel like owning an Italian Ice, Ice Cream and Chocolate making business? Our favorite Detroit Ice and Ice cream maker is available. Alinosi is celebrating 100 years on the East Side and the owner is ready to retire. He hasn't been there the full 100 years! (Steve's grandfather was the original Alinosi.) Any takers? We'll help a bit if we can. Like to see this great company continue and thrive. https://www.facebook.com/detroitfreepress/posts/the-owner-of-alinosi-ice-cream-candy-is-selling-his-business-along-with-its-loca/10159509550470530/

We miss seeing so many old and new friends at the Ann Arbor Street Art Fair, The Original this year and also at the Belle Isle Art Fair and other events. Yet we want a safe, healthy world - so we recommend you buy art directly from artists on their websites and social media channels this year.
Mity Nice is taking the summer off, yet we hope to continue to support a few good local charities with donations. More on that soon.

Ann Arbor still offers so many ways to celebrate artists and buy art. Thanks to founder Sophie Grillet, any one may check out the virtual gallery from Westside Art Hop and its artists, right at home:

We are sorry to miss seeing and serving so many of our friends and fellow artists at the Ann Arbor Street Art Fair, The Original and the Ann Arbor Art Fair. Yet we want everyone safe and healthy, so we will see you later!
