A Woman's Touch to close
Six years ago, I announced the opening of a new erotic boutique with an emphasis on community health called A Woman's Touch, 200 N. Jefferson St.
Today, sadly, I am reporting that it will close at the end of the year.
Co-owners Ellen Barnard and Dr. Myrtle Wilhite opened the first A Woman's Touch in Madison 10 years prior to opening the Milwaukee shop. According to a staff member, the Milwaukee store sells merchandise online, but doesn't have enough foot traffic to keep the venture profitable. The Madison store will remain open.
A Woman's Touch will not have a going-out-of-business sale, but stop in to say good-bye or pick up a few sassy holiday gifts. I did.
