Amara Coffee makes an artful awning debut on 14th Street

On Friday, we spotted local artist Eddie Pons creating an awning mural for the recently opened Amara Coffee at 534 E. 14th St. between Avenue A and Avenue B.

Here is how it looked on Sunday...
Amara debuted in late May... and had its grand opening on June 28. 

The coffee shop (serving Stumptown) also offers pastries and sandwiches.
Amara features the work of local artists, the first of which is "The Friend-A-Renda Show."
Pons (below) says he plans to live paint once a month outside Amara and offer giveaways of his work.
Shop hours: 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, with an 8 a.m. open on Saturday and Sunday.

The space was most recently Perk Espresso & Coffee Bar.
