About Holiday Tings

When we made the heartfelt decision to close the doors of our beloved venue in November 2025, we carried one truth with us: the community we built was never defined by four walls.

Holiday Tings is our first expression of that truth — an online holiday pop-up shop created to keep our spirit bright, spread joy, and continue supporting the mission at the heart of Missy Lane’s.

This digital pop-up shop launches with our first-ever custom collectibles:
the Missy Lane’s Santa Mugs — Island Santa & Mermaid Muse Santa.
Designed to bring warmth, whimsy, and a touch of melanated sparkle to your season, each mug carries the story of a venue rooted in culture, community, and soulful creativity.

Even without a physical space, the Missy Lane’s Charitable Foundation continues its mission to expand the audience for jazz and Black American music.
Your mug purchases, merch orders, and donations go directly toward:

  • Closing the books on the signature 2025 Block Party

  • Future pop-up concerts and creative experiences

Holiday Tings is more than seasonal merch — it’s a way to keep the music playing and the community connected during a period of transition and rebirth.

Closing the venue was the end of a chapter, not the end of our story.
This online shop is a reminder that joy, creativity, and culture live wherever people carry them.

Thank you for supporting Holiday Tings, the Foundation, and the future we’re building — together.
