Area-51 ½ Store

We’re celebrating all things space this month at Trekell!

Here at Trekell, we’re honoring the extraordinary exploration of and achievements in space - and, of course, Star Wars - by producing space themed wood panels through the month of May.

SPACE THEMED WOOD PANELS

All of Trekell's artist panels are handcrafted right here in our factory so we can keep a close eye on quality control by maintaining the highest manufacturing standards. Our line of space themed panels are made from  ½” thick baltic birch and are ready to hang with the pre-drilled keyhole in the back.

We'll be offering an Alien Floater and 1/2" panel, a Star 1/2" panel, a Sunburst Floater and 1/2" panel, a Saturn 1/2" panel, Flying Saucer 1/2" panel, Rocket 1/2" panel, and not to mention our Waning Crescent Moon 1/2" panel! Challenge yourself with a new shape of canvas today!

MAY THE 4TH BE WITH YOU

Star Wars Day - May 4th -  honors George Lucus’s Star Wars franchise. The date was chosen as a play on the famous Jedi farewell, "May the Force be with You". It is observed globally by fans in a variety of grassroots celebrations and throughout the media.

REVENGE OF THE 5TH

In true Star Wars fashion, one is never enough! Revenge of the 5th - May 5th - is a second celebrated Star Wars Day. Another pun, this date refers to Star Wars: Episode III, “Revenge of the Sith”. Sometimes used to celebrate the Dark Side, as opposed to May 4, which is often used to celebrate the Jedi.

NATIONAL SPACE DAY

The first Friday in May - May 6th this year -  is National Space Day. National Space Day was created to inspire and promote the pursuit of knowledge and progress. Though it’s unlikely you’ll be able to celebrate IN outer space, you can still take part in your own corner of the universe by creating beautiful, space themed artwork on National Space Day - and every day!
