Join us for Sip + Shop, a series of gatherings at the L1 Retail Store that showcase local creative entrepreneurs with a curated shopping experience, drinks and bites, and good vibes.

Each month, our Entrepreneur-in-Residence, Peter Gaona of Reformed School, invites guest entrepreneurs to share their wares and connect with you. It’s an easy and joyful way to #SupportSouthSideArtists—come sip, shop, and show love to local makers!!

August guest entrepreneurs are IceBoxx and Moonstone Chandlery.

About the Guest Entrepreneurs:

IceBoxx is a Chicago-based dessert company blending bold flavors with a deep love for community. We specialize in small-batch cookies, creamy homemade ice cream, refreshing lemonades, and nostalgic freeze pops—all made with real ingredients and no shortcuts. Every treat is crafted to bring back joyful memories and create new ones. Whether we’re shipping cookies nationwide or popping up at local markets, IceBoxx is here to spread love, flavor, and connection—one sweet bite at a time.

Moonstone Chandlery crafts more than candles—they create sacred tools for your journey toward balance, clarity, and inner peace. Their specialty candles are a celebration of harmony, crafted with 100% USA-farmed soy wax and infused with the powerful, restorative energy of hand-selected crystals. Each candle is a beacon of light and intention, enhanced by the essence of herbs and pure essential oils chosen for their unique healing properties.
