After years of being told we need to get a website, we are please to announce that both the Big Easel and the Essenhaus now each have their own functioning websites! We hope you’ll still follow our Facebook page for spontaneous announcements but these websites consist of our basic information as well as information on upcoming special events such as performances, special menus, etc.

 

Now that we finally have a website, do you have any suggestions as to how to make the best use of it? What else would you like to see featured?


We hope you’ll share these long awaited sites with your friends and family.
