Nika Corbett is a 20-year marketing veteran who started Curate Noir, a subscription box to get the word out about Black-and-Brown owned businesses, during the pandemic. She's hoping that this weekend's expo can continue the mission the store has started. In May, Curate Noir opened a one-stop shop with an array of black and brown owned business products at their flagship location at the Moorestown Mall. Curate Noir's first expo will take place on Saturday, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., at the Moorestown Mall. The second expo will occur on August 21st at the Cherry Hill Mall, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. The first 50 attendees for each event will receive a free gift bag. Vendors can register here. Curate Noir is open 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Saturday, and noon to 5 p.m. on Sunday.

Climb Aboard for a Battleship New Jersey Summer Tour. Now guests visiting the Battleship will get an extra hour to tour our nation’s most decorated and largest battleship. The Battleship’s Summer Tour Hours will open every day at 11 a.m. with the final tour departing at 4 p.m., which means you can stay aboard the ship to tour until 5:30pm. That gives everyone one more hour to climb inside the massive 16-inch gun turret, check out the bunks that the sailors used to sleep on, track a tomahawk missile in the Combat Engagement Center, and more! Summer tour hours will be in effect until Labor Day, September 6th. Their Overnight Encampment Program will restart Sept. 17, 2021. Please submit the form below and we will contact you shortly to confirm your request or call 1-866-877-6262 ext. 203. All Overnight Encampments on the Battleship New Jersey must be booked in advance. Click here to learn more.

Philly Voice recently featured a piece on new resident Andrew Tyler Mascieri. With a background in design, no one understands the ability to envision the true potential of a space with a keen eye better than Andrew.  Having over $8 million dollars in sales under his belt in just 2021 alone, he is PhillyLiving Real Estate’s highest producer on a team of 24 agents and uses a background in design to his advantage. Mascieri’s passion for architecture led him to purchase his very own fixer-upper in Merchantville in 2020 and since then, he's been renovating the 152-year-old Victorian home and documenting the process for his 15,000 followers on Instagram.

Rosemari Hicks offers a menu of lattes, chai teas and loaf slices courtesy of many Camden vendors and micro-business owners at her Nuanced Cafe, 225 Market St. in Camden. The decor of this newly-opened downtown coffee shop displays  similar hyper local touches including the wall in the seating area kept purposefully empty - with photographers and painters able to showcase their work and even sell it with all profits going to them. Hicks, a Merchantville resident for the past 20 years, hopes to see grow even more following the café’s January 11th soft opening. For now, customers can sit at socially-distanced tables in the café while wearing face masks. In the future she hopes to greet returning students from Rutgers-Camden. For more information call 609-332-3084 or visit www.facebook.com/NuancedCafe.
