Saving Jamestown’s Living Room

A beloved community hub, the Jamestown Mercantile, faces extinction unless 1.5 million dollars is raised in 11 months—thanks to a crowdfunding campaign that’s only hit $33K so far from 130 donors. With quirky charm, historic character, and a “living room” vibe, the Merc is more than bricks and mortar—it’s a free-spirited gathering spot threatened by developers who could turn it into high-end condos or pricey restaurants. Musician Gregory Alan Isakov is helping by donating a dollar per ticket sold. The clock’s ticking, but locals are rallying to save this irreplaceable mountain gem before it’s lost forever.
