EnglishWhat Can I Find at Farver's at the Croswell and the Gift Shop?
Updated
Farver's at the Croswell is the theater's on-site social and events space, open Wednesday through Saturday starting at 4pm, with live music, improv, whiskey tastings, workshops, and other special events on its calendar. The gift shop is a separate retail spot inside the Croswell Opera House selling handmade ceramic mugs, locally made artisan chocolates, shirts, and other gifts. Both are extras you can visit alongside a show, not ticketed performances themselves.
Farver's at the Croswell
Farver's is described on the Croswell site as a place to "join us throughout the week for live music and a full calendar of special events." What that means in practice:
- Hours: Wednesday – Saturday, opens at 4pm
- Recurring offerings: live music, improv, whiskey tastings, workshops
- Beyond that: a rotating schedule of special events
Because the lineup changes, the site points visitors to an event schedule rather than a fixed menu of nightly programming. If you're planning around a specific act or tasting, check that schedule before you go — the format and content vary by date.
How to use it
- Decide which night (Wednesday–Saturday) works for you.
- Check the Farver's event schedule on croswell.org to see what's on that date.
- Arrive at or after 4pm, since that's when Farver's opens.
If nothing on a given night matches your interests, the space still functions as a pre- or post-show gathering spot on show nights.
The Gift Shop
The Croswell gift shop carries a small, curated mix of items rather than standard theater merchandise only:
| Category | Examples listed |
|---|---|
| Ceramics | Handmade ceramic mugs |
| Food gifts | Locally-made artisan chocolates |
| Apparel & general gifts | Shirts, gifts, "and so much more" |
The shop is framed as a place to find "something just for you" — useful if you want a souvenir, a locally made gift, or a memento of a specific production. Note that some merchandise is tied to particular events: the site mentions official reunion shirts available until October 28, alongside event photos, so limited-run items do appear and disappear.
Fitting These Into a Visit
Farver's and the gift shop sit alongside the main season rather than replacing it. The current lineup includes The Hunchback of Notre Dame (October 16–25), Disney's Frozen (November 20–December 6), and the Home for the Holidays Concert & Gala (December 12–13). A typical visit could combine a show with a drink and live music at Farver's, or a stop in the gift shop before the curtain.
If your main goal is a show, see the ticket and subscription options; if your main goal is a low-key evening out, Farver's Wednesday–Saturday schedule is the thing to check first.
