Golden Age

It’s been two years since Golden Age opened up shop in Pilsen, a testament to the neighborhood’s burgeoning art scene and also the sustainability of small-edition artist books. The hands-on medium is affordable and addictively collectible. Golden Age’s proprietors, themselves artists, also have an affinity for independent record labels, so you’ll find underground vinyl and even cassettes alongside the zines and silkscreened books. The inventory sports a healthy supply of local talent but also regularly features work from national and international imprints.
