SUPER SANTA BARBARA
What:Â Exhibition about the ‘Future of Santa Barbara’

Portland-Fine Grinds Cafe becomes: Lyrik *Food*Art* Drink*
October 10, 2009 no comments
 
Our good friends Joe Shea and Keiko have worked relentlessly on transforming a normal neighborhood coffee shop previously known as the Fine Grind Arts Cafe into - Lyrik -what we wish we could find in every coffee shop we visit……… great music, people, food,coffee (and beers), constant changing art, and an overall community vibe. I have always been a strong believer in “if you put your heart and soul into something-you will always achieve greatness” and what a perfect example of this. We urge you-if in the Portland area-to swing in and say hello and discover for yourself what can be created with a little bit of passion and hard work.
