Thompson Launches Micro Coffee Roastery

Professor of Art & Design and Department Chair Ryan Thompson has recently begun another creative endeavor–a micro coffee roastery in Oak Park, Ill., called Sideyard Coffee.

Thompson and his business were recently featured in the Oak Park “Wednesday Journal.”

“I’ve wanted to do neighborhood coffee for quite some time,” Thompson told. “This seemed like the perfect time to do it because more and more people are brewing coffee at home.”
