☀️ What a beautiful Sunday! ☀️

We hope you’re getting outside, tackling a few projects, or just enjoying everything Western New York has to offer this time of year.

When you’re ready to wrap up the weekend, don’t forget about Magic Monday tomorrow!

We’ve been blown away by the response lately. We recently filled all 20 seats, and the community just keeps getting stronger.

🃏 6–9 PM
💲 $8 per person
☕ Includes a small beverage

Mostly casual play. Mostly Commander. Always a great group.

Come see why Magic Monday has become one of our favorite ways to kick off the week, right here in downtown Medina.

✨ Talk of the Town ✨

This week, we’re shining a light on The Print Shop and Blue Thursdays. 💙🎶🖨️

Some businesses are more than the products they create. They become part of the story of a community, and that’s exactly what The Print Shop Medina has been.

Long before Nola’s Gaming & Crafting Café opened, we were selling snowballs at Blue Thursdays Medina. Week after week, we watched neighbors gather for free live music, great company, and some of the best summer evenings our village has to offer. 🎷🎵

When Ken first learned what we were trying to bring to Medina, he got it immediately. He understood the spirit and culture we wanted to share. The food, the music, the colors, and the sense of community that makes New Orleans so special. He helped make sure our branding reflected that vision, and that support meant the world to us.

Sometimes we think he would have loved what Nola’s has become because, at its heart, it keeps a little bit of that New Orleans spirit alive right here in Medina. ⚜️💙

Today, The Print Shop continues to thrive under dedicated ownership and a hardworking team that consistently delivers outstanding work for Medina and the surrounding communities. Their creativity, quality, and commitment to local businesses are evident in everything they do, and it’s clear that the same spirit of community and pride that helped build The Print Shop continues to shine today.

And Blue Thursdays remains one of Medina’s best traditions. Free music, great bands, familiar faces, and a reason to spend a summer evening downtown. If you haven’t been yet, make plans to go. You won’t regret it. 🎶

We’re grateful for the people who built it and equally grateful for the people carrying it forward today.

Medina is better because of it. 💙

🧚✨ Coming to Medina for the FAERY Festival this Saturday? ✨🧚

Stop by Nola’s and take home a little magic of your own!

Our Fairy House Kits are one of our favorite things we offer. For just $20, each complete kit includes everything you need to create your own magical little world. Choose from two different styles and make it completely your own.

We’ve loved seeing all the creativity already! Some people paint them bright and whimsical, others keep them cozy and woodland-inspired. Many add their own creative artwork and little keepsakes to make their fairy house uniquely theirs.

That’s our favorite part—no two fairy houses are ever exactly alike. 💚

Whether you’re a little faery, a woodland creature, or just a big kid at heart, we’d love to help you create something special.

✨ Talk of the Town ✨

This week, we’re shining a light on Rudy’s Restaurant. 🍔❤️🍟

As we get ready for our Kids Eat Free Snowball Day tomorrow, we can’t help but think back to the very first one.

Truth be told… we weren’t prepared. 😅 The turnout was incredible, and before we knew it, we had a line of hot and thirsty kids stretching farther than we ever imagined. We couldn’t exactly run to the store, and Rudy’s came in clutch with the supplies we needed to keep things going. That kindness and willingness to help has stuck with us ever since. ❤️

That’s who Rudy’s is.

A multi-generation Medina staple, Rudy’s Diner has been serving our community for years. It’s one of those places everyone seems to know, whether you’re stopping in for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or tackling one of their legendary Mojo Burgers. 🍔

They’re always keeping things interesting with daily and weekly specials, and more recently, Saturday late nights 🌙✨, giving Medina another local option when the chain restaurants are calling it a night.

Brody, the waitstaff, and the whole crew have always been welcoming and kind, and we’re grateful for businesses like Rudy’s that continue to show up for their community in big ways and small.

We’re thankful for Rudy’s Restaurant, not just for the great food, but for the generosity, kindness, and hometown spirit they’ve shown us over the years. Medina is better because of it. ❤️
