Postive Vibe Hits the Books

Style Weekly has some detail on Positive Vibe’s leap across the river and into a second location at the Library of Virginia.

The cafe is expected to open at the end of June when an interior redesign by Helen Reed is complete. The smallish space will have more color and more comfort in the form of couches and chairs, Wi-Fi and fresh food — “a place to hang out, and exposure that can’t be beat,” Vibe founder Garth Larcen says. A new revenue stream and potential customer base “is a great step for us — a collaboration between two nonprofits,” he says. Chefs Jannequin Bennett, Andrea Huntjens and others will contribute menu ideas; at least a couple of Vibe graduates will work in the new spot.
