The Foundation Grounds (7298 Manchester Road) expansion is nearing completion. The wall between the original space and the one it has expanded into came down last week. The paper is off all the windows.

The Paint & Wine Studio is planning a grand opening at its Bellevue Avenue location Friday. It’s BYO drinks art classes for parties of 10 or more.

In the same block as Mape Vape, Tiny Little Monster (7207 Manchester Road) will soon celebrate its one-year anniversary. The screen printing shop has grown from its founding, two employees, to eight. They’ve added bumper stickers and also a machine that allows quick-turnaround full color printing. They hope to expand to a warehouse in spring 2015 but will keep the Maplewood storefront.
