To date over 25 million glasses have been distributed.Brookside Plaza, 145 Great Road.Monday-Saturday 10-6 Sunday 11-5.Epilogue Boutique OpensWithin the Silver Unicorn bookstore, hidden behind a door made of a bookcase, is a new clothing store. Acton resident Meghan Seidman collaborated with bookstore owner Paul Swydan to convert an unfinished storage area into a cozy, warm space outfitted with clothing racks and two fitting rooms. Seidman opened Epilogue Boutique on October 22 and, as a first-time business owner, she is feeling her way as to what stock to carry, what hours to open, and how best to serve the community. She describes her product offerings as “a mixture of current, designer, and vintage clothing for women.” She holds an MBA and was working in the philanthropy world when she felt she needed a change. With a love of clothing and a friendship with Swydan, formed by the similar ages of their children, a plan took shape. Seidman sells a wide variety of clothing: shoes, sneakers, handbags, pants, shirts, and dresses and more. Her website says that she “is creating a welcoming space where style, sustainability, and community come together. Through her store, [she] hopes to make it easier for people to shop thoughtfully, express their individuality, and give pre-loved clothing a second chapter.”Epilogue is a consignment store but currently, due to a large assortment of clothing on display, Seidman is not accepting consignments.

But not far. Just two doors west in the same plaza, where Creative Playthings operated. Lee has had the space remodeled, adding an office in the back, painting the walls and ceiling, and installing new carpeting. The space is double in size from the old location and Lee says, “We will be offering the same great program, just an updated and more spacious studio.”<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=2WQYbF_1H5pwIBQ00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=2WQYbF_1H5pwIBQ00" width="1920" height="1440" ><figcaption>Jazzercise prepares to reopen two doors down from its current location.
