We opened Fun House in Convention Hall on the Asbury Park boardwalk in the summer of 2010, before Hurricane Sandy, before Asbury’s big Come Back. The concept was Fun through the eye of Design with equal parts quirky and Japanese “kawaii.”
In the 1970s the Asbury Park souvenir market had disappeared but after two summers on the boardwalk we could no longer ignore visitors’ requests. Tillie, Tillie, Tillie. Oh yeah — and Greetings from Asbury Park.
Summer 2013 Fun House introduced two t-shirt designs - Tillie and Greetings from Asbury Park - in two colors. Gene comes from a printing background and Scott had years of experience in fashion so it was a natural fit. Designs by us, printed in-house on quality shirts. Asbury Souvenirs for Locals.
