The Lobby is Checking You In.
Once upon a time, in the tiny agricultural town of Biggs, California, a hotel opened its doors in 1905 and said "welcome" to weary travelers, dusty ranchers, and — presumably — at least one scandal.
That building is still standing. It's called The Colonia Building, and after a decade of blood, sweat, plaster dust, and me personally arguing with a building that is older than sliced bread, it's still standing beautifully.
Currently utilized as a venue for weddings, showers and other parties... This September, it's checking guests back in.
The Details
📍 Where: The Colonia Building — Biggs, CA
📅 When: September 18 & 19
🗝️ What: A curated vintage market, one historic lobby, zero regrets
Introducing: The Lobby
A seasonal vintage market, held inside a 1905 building that has seen more history than your family group chat has drama. We're leaning all the way into the hotel bones — think old-world lobby energy, if the concierge dealt exclusively in mid-century lamps, hand-thrown pottery, and clothes with a little previous life to them.
This isn't a folding-table-in-a-parking-lot situation. You're shopping inside real archways, real original details, real "they don't build 'em like this anymore" — because they genuinely do not, and also because I would like to see them try.
A space for recovering minimalists. Bring your tote bags. Bring your denial about how much stuff you already own. Leave your restraint at the door — we didn't reserve a spot for it.
