    Ars Libri - A glimpse inside the store

    Ars Libri

    I've lived in the South End for about a year now and haven't done nearly as much exploring as I had…read morehoped to (school, always getting in the way!). So last weekend, boyfriend and I decided to stroll down Harrison to find Gaslight and get to know the neighborhood better. We passed Ars Libri and I was drawn to the stacks of books inside. Typically when stores have doorbells, you ring them...so we did. Soon after, a man let us in and left us to explore without giving us a snooty attitude just because we're on the young end of the spectrum--something I've encountered in many snobby art bookstores before. Before I could comprehend where I was, I noticed a large table amid the stacks with open bottles of wine so that, presumably, you could sit and sip on something as you read. Sweet, I thought. And then I realized that I had found the holy grail. Most people like art, so an art bookstore would be a cool thing to find. But as an art history major who is minoring in museum studies, the realization that the place was solely dedicated to books on art, ethnography, and architecture led me to hold in the loudest squeal that would have ever left my lips. I flitted from bookshelf to bookshelf, seeing titles that I had read excerpts from for school before but had never been able to hold in my hands. I was in heaven. The store is impeccably organized, and the selection is amazing. I didn't speak much to the shopkeep, who I understand is a book dealer, but I imagine that he could find anything you might ever be looking for. And depending on what you're looking for, the book prices are actually pretty reasonable; there were a couple of out of print titles that I had been stalking on Amazon for upwards of $50 that were for sale at Ars Libri for less than $30. Not bad at all, especially considering the fine quality and excellent condition they were in. I highly recommend this bookstore for any lover of books or art, or anyone looking to expand their horizons a bit. The space is beautiful and light, a soothing respite from the bustling city. I will most definitely be returning and hope to gradually fill my bookshelves up with the phenomenal wares this store has to offer.

    An excellent dealer in fine and rare used books primarily in the fine arts…read more Ars Libri is located in an unassuming storefront on a quiet part of Harrison Ave. Stumbling upon it one Saturday morning I couldn't tell if it was even open to the public. I tried the door, and finding it locked, began to walk away. Just then a gentleman popped his head out and asked if he could help me. I was just passing by and curious, I said. "Are you open?" "In a few minutes," he said. "Come on in." Inside it felt more like the back room of a museum or a fine library. Historic and arcane books in all manner of languages lined the shelves of aisle after aisle, ranging from small manuscripts to huge leather-bound catalogues. Along one side, the owner sat at his desk, making deals on the telephone with other dealers of rare and delicate volumes as I just walked the aisles in some awe, occasionally daring to remove and inspect a book here and there when I wasn't afraid I'd somehow ruin a treasured artifact. I have to admit, the whole place was a little bit intimidating, and I felt a little, well, unqualified to be there. The cheapest of books here are not at all cheap, and the low-key display and location made it feel almost as if I should have had an appointment to be there. But he let me in, so I tried not to let it bother me. If you're like me and your heart rate picks up a little when surrounded by mysterious, intriguing old books, or if you're just passionate about the fine arts and want to see some books on the subject that you probably won't find in may other places, it's worth hunting this place out and having a careful look around.

    I had a Gilt City for this experience and have been waiting for months to go…read more My boyfriend and I finally went last week, and we were both thoroughly impressed by Edwards and his passion for bringing together art and science. We walked through the museum portion first interacting with different stations. The museum is pretty small but detailed and takes about 30 minutes max to go through everything detailed though you can probably skim it in 15. The exhibits do rotate and the last one we wanted to see sold out. As we entered the next room we were greeted with a fabulous gimlet. 5 stars! Next we had the taste and smell experience of the exhibit where they had a vaporizing machine and you could drink (inhale) a margarita or chocolate which was mind blowing and so unique. We then did a smell machine where we guessed scents the machine was able to make up off different nodes, so fun. We tried inhaling chocolate cocoa through a cigarette-like candy. Our favorite was the vanilla coconut milk gel covered balls. They were delicious and unlike anything we have ever had. Super refreshing. We had such a good night we continued to Cafe ArtScience right next door where Todd Maul (former mixologist at Clio, our old favorite go-to) impressed us once again by mixing up some impressive concoctions. Probably one of our best date nights yet, so unique fun and different.

    UNIQUE ART & DESIGN CENTER FOR A FULL SENSORY EXPERIENCE…read moreopen Wednesday - Saturday! I'm so surprised that I had never heard of Le Laboratoire before. Sitting next to Cafe ArtScience, this art gallery/design center is cleverly in the center of bustling biotech/pharma that is growing in Kendall Square. A Harvard professor opened this gallery only in Paris and Cambridge, MA as a place of true innovation showcased in a truly interactive way. I purchased a Gilt City deal for a guided tour through the Lab Lounge. The deal included the following: + GALLERY OF "THE TROUBLE WITH JELLYFISH": A full gallery with paintings, drawings, and a furniture installation with unique jelly fish objects, live jellyfish, and interactive ways to learn about the ways jellyfish are impacting the ecosystem. This exhibit is ongoing until Jan 2, 2016! + "OPHONE" EXPERIENCE: We were able to witness creating and sending different smells directly from an iPad to a device called the ophone, which emitted smells from different card insertions. + INHALABLE WHAF: Taking alcohol, this whaf turned the liquid into smoke that you could inhale and taste. You can't get drunk off of this "cocktail", though! + "AERO" BREATHABLE CHOCOLATE: This device looked like a mini vape, where you could inhale chocolate without consuming the calories! These aero shots were also available for caffeine and vitamin C shots. + LAB COCKTAILS: They were really strong! ~ 8 WIKI ICE CREAM TREATS: These ice creams were self-contained sundaes - little balls of ice cream in the center with chocolate or blueberry coating. I would just rather have a normal sundae! The guided tour was an awesome experience and we were able to see other inventions that were using recycled plastic and trying to preserve/create energy. This is a truly unique exhibit and perfect for the Kendall Square area, a place full of educated individuals and growing innovative industries. Definitely stop by for a date or group outing!
