Sun. 1/1: New Year’s Day- Thump CLOSED!
Wishing you a Healthy, Happy, Prosperous 2012!

Fri. 1/6: Open Late for First Friday Art Walk. We hope to see you at the January Art Walk!
Some of the youngest artists ever to show at thump will be represented. The River Song  Montessori School student art show, “Vision of Peace” a collection of acrylic paintings created as part of an ongoing study of world peace leaders, will cover thump’s walls.  Also for First Friday ONLY, “The Missing Peace: Artists Consider the Dalai Lama,” multi-media prints will also be on display in thump’s breezeway.

Fri. 1/13: Happy 5th Birthday Thump
Thank you friends for keeping thump a thumpin’!

Traditional Cappuccino Happy Hour, Every Friday 2:30-5:30pm If you’ve never tried a traditional espresso drink – a doppio, macchiato or cappuccino – make sure to join us on Friday afternoons when we offer them for 50% off! It’s a great way to cap the week and roll into your Friday evening.

featured cup: Single Origin Espresso, Guatemala Finca el Injerto, Bourbon, Direct Trade
Flavor: Raspberry embedded in notes of chocolate, mild lemon and cardamom with a vanilla finish. Pairing it with milk accentuates the nouget and caramel sweetness in the espresso.

We’re thrilled to finally offer a single origin espresso that rivals Stumptown’s delicious Hair Bender espresso!  Hair Bender espresso is a blend of up to eight different coffee beans from origins around the world, whereas the Guatemala Finca el Injerto Single Origin Espresso uses coffee beans from just one coffee farm, Guatemala’s famed Finca el Injerto. Like Hair Bender espresso, Guatemal Finca el Injerto S.O.E. also has a roast profile that is carefully developed specifically for espresso brewing. Thump is now using this single origin espresso in all of our traditional espresso drinks: doppios, macchiatos and traditional cappuccinos. But if your interest has been piqued, feel free to request it in any of our espresso drinks!

Artists Needed to Adopt Mosaic Materials
Thump’s beautiful, colorful, cups and plates are well loved and from time to time need to be retired. Instead of sending them to the landfill, we hang on to these chipped treasures and offer them up to those with a creative re-use idea in mind, like a mosaic! If you are interested in these cups and plates, please contact Hazel to arrange a time to pick them up. She can be reached here.

Find Your Wish on Flickr
The wooden planks swaying from thump’s ceiling capturing brief wishes from passersby, are as much of what makes thump, thump as any delicious drinks we serve. Have you ever wondered what happens to those wishes or how many have been created? Well, local artist and “Wishes” installation creator Mark Bernahl rotates the wishes every couple of months, adding new ones, removing old ones. He has kept every single wish that has been rotated out since the “Wishes” inception more than four years ago! And, he has scanned them! You can view more than 5,000 of them here. If you wrote a wish sometime in the last four years, go to our Flickr site and see if you can find it. Over 5,000 and counting are on the site! And . . . let us know if your wish came true!
