The Wartrace Emporium began as a shared dream between artist Julie Barrett Habel and her business partners, Matthew Evans and Benjamin Cataldo. United by a passion for creativity and community, they opened the Emporium on December 21, 2024, at 100 Main St. E in the heart of Wartrace, TN.

More than a retail space, The Wartrace Emporium was envisioned as a place where art, craftsmanship, and connection could thrive. It features an eclectic mix of handmade, repurposed, and artist-designed goods—each item chosen with care to reflect originality and purpose. The Emporium also serves as a creative hub, hosting workshops, seasonal showcases, and events that support both artists and the broader community. It’s a space where visitors can find the perfect gift, learn a new skill, or simply be inspired.

Hours: Monday through Friday 11:00- 6:00, Saturday 10:00-6:00, and Sunday 11:00-4:00.
