☕️ We wandered into Salty Fox to chat about their newest launch, and we’re here for it! 🦊

Now serving up freshly made breakfast and a curated, seasonal coffee menu 7 days a week🙌 Giving EGAD even more reasons to grab a friend, wander the district, and stay awhile.

More options, new reasons to visit, and new life filling our storefronts? That’s what helps a district grow. Every new business, new offering, and new reason to explore adds to the energy that makes EGAD special 💜

Now we want to hear from YOU! 👇

What do you think about the new coffee + breakfast scene in EGAD? What would you love to see more of in the district? Drop your thoughts in the comments!

🐾 About last Friday night.

October First Friday brought the Mutt Strut back to Eau Gallie Square and despite the Florida heat, you showed UP. 🥵🐶

The creative costumes.
The big personalities.
The crowd cheers.
The happy dogs.
The people who came out just to be part of it.

It takes a community to build a community and nights like this are why we keep showing up 💜

A huge THANK YOU to:
🦁 @brevardzoo for sponsoring the Mutt Strut and supporting our community.
🛍️ Our local pop-ups for bringing their creativity, energy and life to the Square.
🎤 Our host + judges for giving their time and helping make the Mutt Strut so much fun.
🐾 @spacecoastfrenchierescue volunteers + fosters for taking time out of their already very busy schedules to join us and for everything you do every day to save lives and give these pups a second chance. Be sure to visit their page to learn more about their work and how you can support them.

And to everyone who came out, cheered from the sidelines, brought a pup, supported a local business, shopped a pop-up or simply spent your Friday night in EGAD… we thank you for being part of it.

We already can’t wait to see everyone strut their stuff again next October First Friday. 🐾✨
But first...

🤠 NOVEMBER 6 — SPACE COWBOY
Dust off those boots. We’re taking First Friday to the wild west with a cosmic EGAD twist.
See you there. 🌵✨

Looking for something a little more… unusual this spooky season? 👀🌿

Meet The Dark Garden, Brevard’s ONLY choose-your-own-adventure haunted attraction, right here in the Eau Gallie Arts District.

This isn’t your typical haunted house where you walk through and wait for the next scare. You’re part of the story. An immersive, interactive horror experience where you decide what happens next.

🖤 Fridays & Saturdays
🖤 Oct. 9–30
🖤 7–10PM
🖤 18+ (or under 18 with an accompanying adult)

A mysterious file has remained sealed for decades. Now, your presence has been requested.
Will you stop the garden… or help it grow? 🌿🩸

If you’re the kind of person who’d rather seek out the strange, creative, local & genuinely unique than do the same old Halloween routine, this one’s for you.
And because EGAD believes spooky should be for everyone…
🎃 Not So Dark Garden - a family-friendly version of the experience
📅 Oct. 9 & Oct. 24

Come experience something seriously different, support local creators, and keep the art + weirdness of EGAD alive. 🖤

🎟️ Head to @darkgardenhaunt to learn more + purchase tickets.

Think you’re brave enough to enter? Let us know in the comments.

Made this series in 2025 focused on business stories in EGAD (Eau Gallie Art District) in Melbourne, Florida. This is a piece of the intro that captures a little of the entire town. Easily one of my favorite towns on the Space Coast of Brevard County, Florida.

My favorite part was working with George at ACE Hardware. He just represents the best of that Baby Boomer generation, and visiting his store is like visiting my childhood. People are nice and talkative. They welcome you in and help you find what you need.
Love that place.

✨ One of EGAD’s newest additions, Wood & Grace Artisan Jewelers, opened its doors this summer with something pretty special behind them.

So we had to wander in to get the scoop on the story behind these doors. 

Family-owned and rooted in generations of jewelry experience, @wood.and.grace brings together a collection that includes rare gems, heirloom pieces and stones sourced from mines that are no longer open (some of which haven’t been in circulation for nearly 20 years!)

Their focus goes beyond beautiful jewelry. They specialize in quality, heirloom redesign, and creating pieces meant to be treasured for generations, but while building a brand that feels connected to the community they now call home.

This is what makes EGAD, EGAD.
Creative people. Independent businesses. Artists, makers and entrepreneurs taking a chance on something of their own and adding a little more character to our corner of the Space Coast.

But a creative district doesn’t stay creative by accident. It takes all of us choosing to shop local, show up, share their stories and support the businesses that make this place unique.

So next time you’re wandering through EGAD, stop in, say hello and discover what Wood & Grace is bringing to the district. 💎
