Soft Opening for the Silos Bar

By

In August of 2023 founders Wes Hartshorn and Shannon Thomas secured the funding to make their dreams a reality at the Silos. That day unlocked the remarkable journey where creatives, trades people, friends, and family have showed up and invested time, energy, passion, love, problem-solving, joy and laughter to create a unique place for our community. The space is taking shape daily while the big vision and little details actualize moment by moment.
Throughout the month of December, Thursday-Saturday, stop in from 5-9 PM for a sneak preview of the Silos Bar.
While they finish setting up the food vendor’s kitchens, stop in to enjoy libations and spirits from the bar. Find a cozy corner to catch-up and connect. The perfect adventure for happy hour with co-workers, family and friends, before or after dinner.
Here are the food vendors that have been selected to be part of The Silos- probable opening in January.
