The gypsy of Sacramento is pulling up roots in Midtown. A closing sign was set out last week to send word that Tasha Preston is closing her global bazaar known as "Tasha's." Since then, friends and customers have been dropping by to pay their respects to the nomadic spirit who brought back pieces of the world. For the last 16 years, Tasha, who prefers to be known by her first name, filled the tiny shop at 1005 22nd St. with tales and treasures ranging from Tibetan jewelry and Central Asian c...

I am looking forward to seeing what tasha's will bring in the future for the world to enjoy. We Love you tasha most of us are more concerned with lending a helping hand in a time of need, so please for those of us who can please let us know what we can do.

This is a very unfortunate situation to hear about. My mom has worked at the building next to Tasha's for nearly 11 years and I remember walking through her store all the time when I was younger and marveling at all of the unique things. I wish her luck, and I'm sorry to see her go.

The store is closing on the last day of August.

Is there a date yet for Tasha's last day? I would love to attend.

I'm sorry to hear this. As a business owner I know it's really hard these days. And the state's budget fiasco hasn't helped. Anyway I remember a few winters ago I had just arrived back into town after living in Southeast Asia and I was very cold and Tasha gave me a strong drink to warm my body and spirit. I don't know her and was not a regular customer but I always remembered her act of kindness and could sense in a moment that she was one of those all too rare people who had realized some of life's deeper truths. Tasha I hope your next journey brings you even greater rewards!
