We’re still closed to the public but we continue to enjoy the responses we’re getting for our Qustomized Quimby’s Quarantine Zine Package (tell us what you like, pay $25+ postage, we send you zines). The notes people leave tickle us so.

Help save Chicago, one t-shirt at a time. Barrel Maker made a truly great Quimby’s shirt and $10 of each sold shirt goes toward Chicago-based small businesses. You can only order it through 5/31, so don’t sleep on it!
