A Mano

Long after Lambertville goes to sleep, something still flutters inside A Mano, The Five and Dime. For 42 years, artists have filled this gallery with beautiful things made by hand. And Butterfly Girl has been watching.

One night, she slipped inside for a closer look. She wandered among the contemporary crafts, fascinated by everything the artists had created. But when she tried to leave, the old building seemed to whisper... Stay. So, she did.

Now Butterfly Girl watches over the art and the little piece of Lambertville history, A Mano, has preserved. If you pass the gallery after dark, look carefully. That shadow moving in the window? It might not be a butterfly.
