Galena, Missouri artist, Darlene Kreighbaum, will be showing her paintings in our 720 Thomas Street store on Saturday, Nov. 12th, during Weston's Holiday Open House. Darlene has been drawing since she was a child and has been been painting ever since her sister gave her a painting lesson for a birthday gift. Darlene is a member of the "Best of Missouri Hands" organization and has been showing at Silver Dollar City for the last seven years. She paints on pieces of granite and other materials, adding in small details to bring a spark of realism into her pictures. We hope you'll stop in to meet Darlene while you're in town for the Open House!

Is Weston Missouri haunted? According to Verna Kowertz, owner of The Upstairs TeaRoom in downtown Weston, very much so. The tearoom has been documented as the most haunted tearoom in the State of Missouri by VisitMO.com, the official Missouri Tourism website, in 2011. Now Verna has published a book titled "Ghost Tales of Weston" introducing over 30 different ghost stories from Weston's past and present.
 
"This has been a fun book to write documenting local storytellers, city officials, and adding to the stories of haunting legends in or around Weston that have been told over the past. I am now the keeper of ghost tales in Weston which include stories like "Einstein's Brain", "Screaming Voices", "Pets With Spirits", "The Ghost On Library Drive", and the newest addition "The Body Found In The Well," Verna states.
 
This 100+ page book may be purchased at Main Street Galleria (and other participating merchants) in downtown Weston Missouri, as well as online at www.westongalleria.com.
