NORWICH – It’s been nearly three months since heavy snowfall – followed by a swift melt-off due to equally heavy rains – forced the closure of Made in Chenango’s 20 South Broad St. location. Yet sometimes, a seemingly disastrous event can have surprising – and inspiring – results, according to Made in Chenango Director Donna Pedini.

On Tuesday, Made in Chenango opened its doors for business once again, this time at its new location at 24-25 North Broad St., formerly the home of Corner Cigar and All American Sporting Goods.

The historical building has undergone a complete transformation thanks to years of renovation, said Pedini, and once again features the original tin ceiling and exposed brick walls. All in all, it’s the perfect location for Made in Chenango’s unique brand of local art, she added.

“It feels really good and we absolutely love it here,” said Pedini of the new location. “Sometimes providence interferes and forces you to choose a different direction, but things worked out really well and we just love the space.”
