See what Capitol Square's newest store has to offer.

A new gift store and artisan gallery is now open in the heart of East Arlington’s Capitol Square.

Diane Buxton opened Luv and Other Gifts, her first store, at 189 Mass. Ave. back in June, but she’s holding her official “grand opening” Friday, Sept. 27, from 5-9 p.m.

At the grand opening, Buxton will be on hand to meet customers and there will be a live folk duo, Laurence Scudder and Erik White of Spotted Tiger.

Luv and Other Gifts is open Tuesday-Saturday, 11 a.m. to 7p.m., and Sunday, noon to 5 p.m. It’s closed Monday.
