First Avenue is like no other street in Steveston village; it is lined with many unique businesses that you won’t find elsewhere. Serendipity’s is one of these shops and has been a part of the community since 1995. The definition of “serendipity” is making fortunate and happy discoveries by chance, usually while searching for something else.
This is the case when you step inside this metaphysical gift shop. The first thing to greet you is the smell of fragrant candles, aromatherapy oil and incense. You will experience a warm welcome from the staff, and as you browse the shop you will uncover an array of hand-selected items that have been curated with care.
"Serendipity’s is a calming and peaceful sanctuary for your soul," says store manager Adrienne Andersen. Adrienne comments, “The store is a safe space to explore different perspectives of the universe, ask questions, play with energies and chill out. Many regular customers come in on their work breaks to decompress and feel uplifted.” 14
