Calling all crafters…

🐝 We spent the day reorganizing the Hive—and it’s looking better than ever!

We’ve made room for more vendors! 🐝

Do you sell your creations at craft shows? Would you love to have your products displayed inside a local brick-and-mortar store?

The Wild Hive Boutique continues to grow and grow, and we’re looking for talented vendors and small businesses who may be the perfect fit for our Hive! 💛

If you create something unique and would like a place where customers can shop your products throughout the week, we’d love to hear from you!

Send us a message with pictures and information about what you sell. Let’s see if you’re a great fit for our growing Hive! 🐝🍯

🛍️ NEW DOWNTOWN SOUVENIRS — MADE HERE. INSPIRED HERE. ❤️

Looking for a little piece of Downtown Rock Springs to take home—or the perfect gift for someone who loves our community?

We’ve got two new ways to show your Rock Springs pride while supporting Downtown!

🕯️ Downtown Rock Springs Candles — $20
Featuring the iconic Downtown artwork of talented local artist Debora Soulé, these candles were made locally by AA Candles and hand-poured right here in Rock Springs.

Owned by Andrea and Anna and established in 2021, AA Candles creates its candles with 100% soy wax, phthalate-free fragrance and vegan ingredients for a clean, cozy burn. Our Downtown candle features notes of green tea, lemongrass and bergamot.

🛍️ Downtown Rock Springs Reusable Shopping Bags — $5
These colorful reusable bags also feature Debora Soulé’s Downtown artwork on the front, plus a handy Downtown directory on the back with QR codes connecting you to shopping, dining, events, public art, the Broadway Theater and more. The side of the bag even shares a little about the artist behind the artwork!

And the best part? Every purchase supports Downtown. Proceeds go right back into the programs, events, beautification projects and revitalization efforts of the Rock Springs Main Street/Urban Renewal Agency.

So when you buy one, you’re not just taking home a Rock Springs souvenir—you’re helping us keep doing the work that makes Downtown a place worth celebrating. ❤️

📍 Available now at our office, 603 S. Main Street.

Shop local. Support Downtown. Take a little Rock Springs home with you.

ROOTED IN ROCK SPRINGS ❤️

This is Rock Springs. These are our businesses. And this is our community.

We’re excited to officially kick off Rooted in Rock Springs, a campaign celebrating the locally owned businesses, people and places that make our community unlike anywhere else.

Because choosing local is about so much more than where you spend your money.

🛍️ It’s finding something you won’t find anywhere else.
🍽️ It’s grabbing a bite at a place where they know your name.
🍻 It’s meeting friends for a drink.
🎭 It’s catching a show, attending an event or trying something new.
❤️ And it’s knowing that the dollars you spend are supporting people who live, work, hire, invest and give back right here in Rock Springs.

Over the coming weeks and months, we’ll be introducing you to the businesses and people who are Rooted in Rock Springs — sharing their stories, their products and a little of what makes each of them special.

But Rooted in Rock Springs is also about YOU.

Every time you choose a local restaurant. Buy a gift from a local shop. Grab coffee from a local barista. Attend a local event. Recommend a local business. Or simply walk through a door you haven’t opened before...

You’re helping Rock Springs thrive.

So get out. Explore. Try someplace new. Revisit an old favorite. And whenever you have a choice, choose local.

ROOTED IN ROCK SPRINGS
Shop Local. Support Local. Stay Local.

👉 Follow along as we share more of what's Rooted in Rock Springs!
