Popartmonkey teams with Midtown shop to launch textile line

It's about time you cuddled on the couch or gone shopping with a popartmonkey. How's that? Well, now it's possible thanks to Hamtramck-based artist Carl Oxley III, who is introducing a new line of pillows and coin purses with his signature colorful creature imagery.

The launch party for the textiles is Oct. 10, 5 - 9 p.m., at the Bureau of Urban Living, the newish Midtown retailer that sells all things mod and fashionable for the home or office. Expect to see pillows with gooey-eyed girafffes, electrified rabbits, dancing robots and more, all priced to buy. Oxley will also have new paintings available. If you can't make the launch, the items will be available during regular business hours. The shop is open Tuesday – Saturday, 11 a.m. – 7 p.m. 
 
The Bureau of Urban Living is at 460 W. Canfield, Detroit. For more information call 313-833-9336.
