Not Everything Here Is For Sale
The Gallery Room
A corner of the store for artists we back, not just products we sell. First one up:
Holiday 87
We spun his first record till the grooves wore clean through. The new one's an honest-to-god masterpiece, and we're not just saying that because we've known him forever.
Listen: "Leaves" →Victor Cruz
A friend of the store, and someone we've been rooting for way before it was cool to say so. Made his Broadway debut this year in "The Fear of 13," after turns in "West Side Story" and a stack of TV you've probably seen. We're just fans. Always have been.
See his work →Not Everything Here Is Serious, Either
The Game Room
A corner for stuff you don't buy so much as you mess around with. First one up:
The Meaning Machine
Push the button, get the meaning of life. That's it. That's the whole thing.
Push it →Guess the Jar
Classic general-store bit: a jar of candy by the register, guess the count, win the jar. Working out how to run it online.
Keys to the Back Office
Every general store's got a door marked "employees only." Ours leads to a few other things we're building under the Prosper name. Same three of us, minus the register.
Prosper Creative
Events, brand campaigns, retail takeovers. We'll design your kids' book, throw your party, whatever it is.
Let's talk →Prosper Publishing
Our kids draw the characters, we figure out how to sell them. First one's in Family Corner.
See the book →Prosper Music
Still tuning this one up. More to come.
Coming SoonProsper Labs
Our little incubator for ideas that don't fit in an aisle. First one out the door: Friendly Reminder.

About Us
Three of us, a garage's worth of ideas, and a store we're still figuring out as we go. Come on in, mind the step, it's been like that since we moved in.
Every year we take a real chunk of what Prosper makes and give it to good causes. Not a round-up-your-total nickel, an actual chunk, good year or bad.
First stop: Conservation Club. Proceeds go straight to Vermont Land Trust, keeping actual Vermont land wild and working. We're already scouting what's next.
Named it for a fellow Woodstock guy, George Perkins Marsh, who wrote the book that basically started the whole conservation movement, back before "conservation" was even a word people used. Felt like the least we could do for a neighbor.
Thanks for stoppin' by. Go on, take a look around. Just don't touch the register.
