News — Georgia

Each weekend in October, the Sully's Mobile Store sets up shop on Artists' Row in downtown historic Salem, Massachusetts. We have a little help from 7 year old Georgia, the daughter of Sully's founder Chris Wrenn. This year, Georgia returned to sell her own collection out of her converted lemonade stand, and helped kids feel comfortable to take photos in our guillotine photo "booth"! As with previous years, Sully's donated all of the tips collected from the guillotine basket, and have donated them to Georgia's elementary school. Check out Georgia's growing collection HERE!

Sully's is excited to announce that Georgia Made This products are now available in THREE different stores in downtown Salem, Massachusetts! Select items are available at Roost & Company, Witch City Wicks and Emporium 32. If you're visiting the Witch City and would like to pick up a unique souvenir illustrated by a 7 year old Salem local, please stop by one of these fine stores!

7 year old entrepreneur (and daughter of Sully's founder Chris Wrenn) Georgia was featured today at the Peabody Essex Museum's "Little Voices, Big Ideas: Celebrating Kid Power" event. Georgia was a featured "Kid Entrepreneur" alongside other future business leaders and activists during a day of art making, workshops, vendors, performances, as well as a scavenger hunt that was illustrated by Georgia herself. Georgia donated 20% of her sales to Salem based HAWC (Healing Abuse, Working for Change), where her mom is a social worker), netting the organization $110. Georgia has literally grown up at the PEM and was featured on their podcast in an episode "Growing Up Curious" when she was 3 years old. You can listen to that HERE.

Georgia is the 7 year old daughter of Sully's founder Chris Wrenn. When she was just 6 years old, she started Georgia Made This, with help from her dad. What started as a t-shirt created to raise money for her elementary school turned into an entire collection of products featuring her artwork. Georgia's new collection debuted at the Peabody Essex Museum's annual Block Party yesterday, and is available online HERE!

This fall Georgia, the 6 year old daughter of Sully's founder Chris Wrenn, worked hard to sell t-shirts that had been created with her illustrations during the busy tourist season in Salem, Massachusetts.  We are very proud to announce that the profit from her t-shirt, on top of all of the tip money earned from our guillotine photo opp, added up to a whopping $2,152 - all of which was donated today to Georgia's school, Saltonstall Elementary.  The money is going to be used to install new basketball hoops on their playground (there currently aren't any).  Congratulations, Georgia!
