Smith, who is an instructor in sculpture and art education at Southeast Missouri State University, also has a sculpture studio in the basement of the old building.

Smith raises exotic animals on his Amity Hills Farm, north of Cape Girardeau.

"I have big-horn sheep, llamas, Sicilian donkeys and some miniature horses," said Smith.

Smith's store will be open from noon to 6 Monday through Saturday.
