Happy New Year from The Aux!

2025 was a BIG year for us. From our Grand Opening in May to growing into a vibrant community with 12+ local businesses under our roof, this year was full of purpose, connection, and joy. We hosted unforgettable moments like Lyrics & Laundry, Café Karaoke, our Open House Wellness Event, Black Girl Day Off, Dreezy Claus, Small Business Saturday, and so much more — all rooted in community and culture. And we’re just getting started!

2026 is all about growth and celebration as we mark our 1-year anniversary, host a Black History Month Sunday Dinner, introduce African American dance classes, art contests, and even more experiences that uplift, inspire, and bring people together.

Thank you for being part of the journey. Cheers to another year of good people, good energy, and big dreams. Here’s to 2026 — let’s keep building, together!
