This Spring, the GAIA family moved into new digs! After outgrowing our former workshop & studio, we were so excited to find a bigger home — in a beautiful old carriage house in Uptown Dallas, no less — and open our first retail store. There we are selling not only our own handmade collection but also a carefully selected assortment of items from like-minded companies.

Recently, our founder Paula spoke with D Magazine about the new shop and showed off our pretty new place. Read that story and see lots of photos.

To celebrate our opening — and get some beautiful photos of our team in the new space — we brought the whole GAIA family together. It’s something we are rarely able to do, and so it was an extraordinarily special day of laughter, loving on babies, and sharing food from all over the world. Women from seven countries — Burma, Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Tunisia, Congo, and the United States — celebrated sisterhood and christened our happy new home. By the end of the gathering, our hearts (and bellies) were full.

Every one of us is so grateful to do what we do, and we welcome you to drop by 2417 Mahon Street in Dallas to shop our curated collection in person or shop goods made by our refugee artisans online now.
