Today I woke up and had to scroll through my camera roll from last night, because there is no way this is real life. If you asked my 20 year old self if I would be cohosting an upscale community focused event in a space that has my name on the door? I would have told you to shut the front door. When I came to CHQ county I loved the area for the beauty it held, but I fell more in love as I branched out of my comfort zone to connect with the people that call CHQ their home. Last night @roseandgracestudio was packed with 60 incredible humans, people who moved from Las Vegas, Brooklyn, Oregon, NYC, Upstate NY, Tennessee, Buffalo. People who work within non profits, entrepreneurs, artists, owners of established businesses. 🫶 We are so blessed to have a melting pot of people here. I can’t explain enough how it takes a passionate team to make things happen; Thank you @jamestownnyyoungprofessionals for being an organization that provides a platform for us to come together (& for also being an incredible crew to make this night a reality). Thank You @frontiermixology for slinging drinks, and always bringing your personality to the experience. Thank You @tastebuds.learntocook (and crew) for creating a spread of food that made my mouth water, and being the fun personality that fills a space with fun and laughter, you have such a talent. Thank You Oksana, @chqdatenight , you are a shining star; a visionary; a kind soul; creative; and most importantly we share the same values of bringing our community together > competition. Thank you for all our attendees, YOU are the people who made this night as special as it was; you invested in yourself, you invested in our community, and I cherish all the deeper level of connections we made.

I can’t believe it’s been 13 months since we opened our doors to the community in the heart of downtown Jamestown.
How is this even real?!
As we take a moment during our busiest season to sit down and reflect, I am filled with gratitude for what this year has been.
Rose & Grace Studio started as a small spark of an idea—an idea I had ZERO clue how to start, run, or maintain.
📸 I’m not a photographer
✨I’m a social media strategist, marketer, mom, and a mid-30s woman who values community above all else.
It’s those values that have brought me here, still standing after a year, keeping our doors open to support creators, artists, entrepreneurs, and visionaries.
2024 has been a roller coaster filled with the most amazing moments.
We had no roadmap for what our first year would look like, but we embraced every opportunity that came our way.
I can’t wait to continue building a cohesive, high-quality space for the creators and dreamers in our community.
🥂 XO Erica Rose & “her little” R.Grace

It’s hard to believe that just a year ago, Rose & Grace Studio was a blank canvas waiting for its makeover.

The vision was there, but the work had only begun. 🛠️

Fast forward to today, we embraced the flood of natural lighting, and played with the original features, such as the white tin ceiling and the hardwood floors.
