Last year, Cherokee Street was honored as the Best Mile of St. Louis in the Riverfront Times (hence the URL of this blog.)
I still think Cherokee is tops, but I suppose they didn't want the other miles to get their collective noses out of joint, so another mile has received the honor this year (congrats, South Grand!)
Despite not getting this specific award, Cherokee was once again well-represented on the Best of list.
- Boots Contemporary Art Space, 2307 Cherokee St., was named Best Art Gallery.
- Snowflake/City Stock, 3156 Cherokee St., hosted Here and There, which was named Best Gallery Exhibit of 2009.
- The Best New Local Art Trend? Artist-run print shops. We could have told you that! Cherokee was represented on the list by All-Along Press and Firecracker Press. As Firecracker's Eric Woods graciously noted in this blog post on the Cherokee Street News site, the list also could have included Cherokee's Porter Teleo and Sleepy Kitty.
- Okay, they're not here yet, but we're going to claim them anyway. Did you know STL Style's moving to Cherokee? Yay! They were named Best T-shirts. We think all of their goodies are good, but this will do for starters.
