This may be the significant thing that’s happened to St. Francis Fountain since they moved away from paper straws:

St Francis Fountain recently remodelled the space that used to be the kitchen that made candy for the fountain. They brought back life into the unused space by opening it up for events and to shorten the weekend brunch wait by offering more seating. The space will be available for events like birthdays, music shows, art openings, and to school functions (free of charge for schools)

The new space opens tonight with an art opening featuring terrariums made from unearthed vintage bottles from old overgrown forest dump sites. Check it out from 6-10pm.
