>> A peek into the windows of the St. Louis retail world

[going, going, gone]
This summer, highly regarded auction house Leslie Hindman Auctioneers opens a new facility at 32 N. Brentwood Blvd., where it expects to hold three to
four auctions in its first year. It also will send art and jewelry for sale to its Chicago headquarters. It has additional auction facilities in Naples, Palm Beach,
Denver and Milkwaukee.

[drop me a line]
Local graphic designer Susan Gutnik debuts Nature’s Bounty, a line of greeting cards celebrating local farmers. Cards are available in the produce department of Straub’s in Clayton, with proceeds to benefit the St. Louis Area Foodbank.

[a new home]
Chesterfield Arts moved to a 4,000-square-foot former retail space at Taubman Prestige Outlets. The space houses offices and educational areas for upcoming camps and classes.

[local designers]
Jan Givens recently launched Showroom 314, a virtual showcase promoting local designers at markets throughout the U.S. She currently represents Laura Kathleen, who has been involved in multiple seasons of Project Runway, and swimsuit designer Lori Coulter.

[move it and lose it]
St. Louis, get ready to sweat! Town & Country’s Burn 1000, which offers interval training classes, hosted a grand opening June 21. Proceeds from donation-based workouts benefited TASK (Team Activities for Special Kids). Attendees also were treated to a complimentary breakfast, live DJ and giveaways.

Also last month, St. Louis resident Don Eisenberg opens The Exercise Coach in Webster Groves and plans to open three additional locations in the future. The gym caters to boomers and busy professionals, and promises results with as little as two 20-minute weekly sessions. Part of a national franchise, The Exercise Coach was founded in 2000 and has 22 locations around the country.
