Another big milestone: today we have a new roof over the PlainSpoken pizza kitchen.

Thanks to our expert concrete crew and help from some local partners, the pour went fast and the results are perfection. With the kitchen addition now topped off, we can’t wait for the next step: topping some pizzas.

Over the last couple of years, we've shared glimpses of this project, but most of the work has happened behind closed doors. Now, the transformation is becoming visible, and we can't wait to take you along for what's next.

Over the coming weeks, we'll be sharing the discoveries, the craftsmanship, the people, and the spaces that are bringing the Gazette Collective to life. Thanks for following along. We think you're going to love what's been happening inside these walls.

We're excited to serve as the presenting venue for July's Art Walk.

Over the past couple of years, we've spent countless hours uncovering and preserving pieces of the historic Gazette building. Some of those pieces have stories left to tell.

Local artist Kristin Oberle is creating an original installation for .ks using reclaimed materials from the building itself—type trays, wood elements, salvaged architectural pieces, and more. The result will become a permanent part of the space and a reflection of both the building's history and its future.

Join us this Friday, July 3rd as the work takes shape. We can't wait to share it with you.

(Re)introducing The Gazette Collective.

While the building isn't new—in fact, it has stood the test of time—the concept is.

The Gazette Collective hosts life.
People will live here.
People will work here.
People will eat here.
People will celebrate here.
People will create here.

This reimagined historic icon, transformed as a modern destination in the heart of Emporia, is coming soon. Check out the link in our bio to learn more.
