Hurricane Relief

Louise 2.jpg
A piece of art like this will be yours!

The 3rd Coast Cafe Gallery exhibition, 'From the Corners of My Mind', by Louise Rouleau, a.k.a. L'OR Artiste, will close at the end of the month.   As detailed here, this exhibit is practically all that remains of her 35 year career as an artist.  With her own experience of helplessness, hopelessness and loss fresh on her mind, Louise watched in horror as hurricanes Harvey and Irma wreaked havoc on places and people's lives and decided that she must help in their recovery.  The first person who provides proof positive to the Coast management that they have donated at least a thousand dollars (U.S.) to a bona fide hurricane relief charity, such as, YOUCARING - Compassionate Crowdfunding,  HAND IN HAND - A Benefit For Hurricane Relief or the American Red Cross will be entitled to claim one of Louise's last remaining works (20" x 26") as a token of her appreciation for your kindness.

L'OR Loses a Lifetime of Her Work

On June 20th of this year, a "huge wave" from an exploded Montreal water main flooded her basement art studio, and in a few cruel moments, destroyed much of her life's work.  Most of what remains of it today is what was hanging out of harms way, here in Chicago, on the walls of the Coast.

Independence Day Weekend Schedule

The Coast will be open for brunch Saturday July 1st, Sunday 2nd and Monday 3rd from 7am to 3pm.  We will be closed Tuesday July 4th and reopen on Wednesday July 5th with new kitchen hours and a new summer menu.
 

We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.    
                                                                                                                                                                Declaration of Independence  

   
      Two hundred and forty-one years ago, the Continental Congress adopted the Declaration of Independence and declared the thirteen American colonies to be a new nation.  So thankful!  Yes, we love the food, the fireworks, the hanging with family and friends on the Fourth, but more importantly, we love living in this, the greatest country on earth, flaws and all!  Thank you America!  Thank you to all the Families serving us in our Military around the world.  And thank you to our First Responder Families here at home.  We wish for each of you a happy and safe holiday weekend!

New Hours and Menu

     When the Coast reopens on the 5th of July, our kitchen will be open from 7am to 11pm and we'll be showing off our new exciting summer menu.  

Looking forward to seeing you then, so please be safe this holiday weekend!
