The Heard Museum is about to get a little bit sweeter.
The downtown art venue announced this week that it will open a new book store and coffee shop (that’ll serve margaritas, too), dubbed the Coffee Cantina, with an opening bash on Friday.
According to museum representatives, the cantina will serve up gourmet blended drinks, teas, and snacks. Added bonus: Every bean of Heard Museum brand coffee is grown organically in the Americas and locally roasted in Cave Creek.
Playing towards the latter part of the its name, the Coffee Cantina will have a bar option available so museum goers can get themselves a nice margarita after perusing art exhibits.
Both the cantina and book shop will be officially opened for business after a ribbon cutting ceremony on February 11, followed by a book signing with former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor on February 12.
The Coffee Cantina will serve customers Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday.
The Heard Museum is at 2301 N. Central Ave. in Phoenix. For more information, check out the Heard Museum website.
