Discover Black & Blue: The Art & Legacy of Andra Douglas

Step into the powerful world of Black & Blue, an art exhibition by Andra Douglas—former quarterback and owner of the groundbreaking New York Sharks, one of the first women’s tackle football teams in the country.

A Florida native who rose to become a creative executive in NYC, Douglas didn’t just break barriers in the boardroom—she shattered them on the field. Her leadership in women’s football and founding of the “Fins Up” foundation has empowered generations of young women through sports.

Now, she brings that same bold energy to the canvas. Through mixed-media works layered with emotion and movement, Black & Blue captures stories of resilience, identity, and the unstoppable force of female athletes. Experience the art of a true pioneer—where sports, self-expression, and social impact collide.

Join Us for Open Mahjong Play at Hearth & Soul!

Calling all Mahjong enthusiasts! Whether you're a seasoned player or just starting out, we invite you to gather at the Hearth for a delightful afternoon of Open Mahjong Play. Bring your friends, your card, and your tiles, and get your Mahj-On! Call (850)-894-7685 to sign up.

When & Where:
All Open Mahjong games take place every Wednesday at 12:30PM at Hearth & Soul, located at 1410 Market Street, Tallahassee, FL. Our store hours are Monday-Saturday, 10:00AM–6:00AM, and Sundays from 12:00PM–5:00PM.

How It Works:
This is a free event, but reservations are required. Simply call us at (850)-894-7685 to secure your spot. A minimum of four players is needed to start a game, so if you’re flying solo or short on players, we’ll add you to a waiting list until more participants join.

Don’t have your own Mahjong tiles or card? No worries! While we encourage you to bring your own, we also have Mahjong supplies available for purchase in-store.

Whether you’re here for the camaraderie, the strategy, or just the joy of the game, we can’t wait to welcome you to Hearth & Soul for an afternoon of fun and friendly competition.

So gather your friends, call to reserve your spot, and let’s play!

Join us Friday, July 25th for a fun community contra dance! Tallahassee’s delightful Drew Thomas will be calling the dances and In Cahoots is conspiring to play us some sensational old-time tunes.

This dance is part of a double-header weekend featuring a traditional dance on July 25 and a pop/techno contra dance on July 26. Contra dancing is an upbeat, beginner-friendly American folk dance for all ages. It shares many moves with square dancing (such as swing your partner and do-si-do) and is danced in long lines to live music. The bands and callers vary each night. Come alone or bring friends–no partner or experience required. Those new to contra dancing are strongly encouraged to come by 7:15 when a Beginner Lesson will be taught, and as dances are taught in more detail early in the evening. Wear comfortable clothes and flat shoes.
