Keller: Eyes Wide Open — Privacy Matters
By Margaret Keller
The Beginning

Caffeinated Curation: Stephen King
“Caffeinated Curation” is a routine book and beverage pairing that highlights Blueprint Coffee and relevant reading recommendations from High Low resident artists and community members.

While the cafe at High Low is temporarily closed, you can still place an order online for your favorite Blueprint Coffee beverage from their Watson or Delmar locations.
