“Eve and Murray” to open a restaurant

Dawn Eve Aguiar and Tamara Murray Deluzio, owners of the farm to home store, Eve and Murray’s, will open a restaurant this fall. The location is 251 Arlington St., in the building formerly occupied by Savory Lane, Orange Door Hospitality and, most recently, WECO. The restaurant, named “Silvergirl”, promises to carry on the same style and passion as the Eve And Murray’s store, where Aguiar and Deluzio sell American cheeses, wines, sandwiches, craft beer, and more. Look for more information in the Acton Exchange as the restaurant nears its opening. 

The inspiration for the name of the restaurant comes from: “Sail on, Silvergirl, sail on by. Your time has come to shine. All your dreams are on their way,” by Paul Simon, Bridge Over Troubled Water.

Adaptive Fitness and Movement moves

Lucille Lee, founder and coach at Adaptive Fitness and Movement, has moved from Boxborough to 425 Great Road in the space formerly occupied by Colorworks. The website states: “From children to adults, we have a variety of classes offering both Adaptive Fitness Programs for individuals with Autism and other special needs, as well as traditional fitness programs.”

Imagine Yoga and More opens

Early this year, Louise Andrews and Stuart Barrie opened their yoga studio at 452 Great Road (rear of building). They offer classes in yoga, meditation, Tai Chi, Pilates, and breathwork. “Imagine Yoga and More is a place where you can recharge your mindset, energy, and balance while having fun or solitude…whatever brings you happiness.” (website). There will be a grand opening ribbon cutting July 12 at noon at their studio. 

Boston Bijoux Jewelers moves two doors down

Boston Bijoux Fine Jewelry, at its present location since it opened in 2013, will shortly move two stores to the south within the Acton Woods Plaza (intersection of routes 2A /119 and 27) in North Acton. The new store has a larger footprint and will use the same mailing address. The store is currently having a moving sale. In addition to the Acton location, Boston Bijoux has a store in Downtown Crossing, Boston.

Verizon Store closes

The wireless phone franchise at 295 Main St. in the Acton Plaza shopping area has permanently closed. Victra, an authorized Verizon retailer, owned the store and they have several stores in the area including in Sudbury and Tewksbury.
