Story Time
Nico Scout is an independent arts lifestyle store curating products that focus on arts and culture, design, music, pop, sub, and counter-culture, and plant life—all within an atmosphere that is fun, welcoming, beautiful, inspirational, and ready to have a good time.
Founded from the ground up by Amber in 2018, Nico Scout is built on perseverance, authenticity, creativity, and is proudly a woman-owned & owner-operated small business.
Amber's story:
In 2018, I opened Nico Scout with a straightforward inspiration: my recent move from years of urban living was a huge contrast to suburban Rhode Island. I found myself missing the vibrancy, energy, and the offerings of city life.
I love meaningful objects and spaces that could make people feel good, seen, inspired, and refreshed. I knew I could create a retail space that goes beyond the standard – a space with a unique identity that holds its own perspective, with the potential to build a local community and grow beyond.
And right now, I’m doing just that.
=) Amber
