Gulf Shores area news

Emporium@C is celebrating 25 years of style, charm, and community on the Gulf Coast. The local boutique has become a favorite stop for both residents and visitors. To mark the milestone, the store is planning a birthday bash at both of its locations. The celebration will include deals, local art, treats, and giveaways.


From July 1st through the 3rd, 2025, the party will take place at the Orange Beach and Perdido Key locations. Shoppers can expect a fun-filled experience that honors the past and celebrates the present. New and longtime customers are welcome to join.


The boutique first opened on July 1, 2000, as Emporium Gifts & More. In 2019, it was sold and renamed Emporium@C. Since then, it has kept the coastal flair while offering fresh seasonal items and local charm.


Owner Trisha Voltz Carlson said the 25th anniversary is more than just a store milestone. “It’s a celebration of our customers, our community, and the beach life that inspires us,” she shared.


The event is designed to welcome everyone and show appreciation to loyal customers. Visitors will enjoy artist showcases, discounts, and surprises.
