A Note About Our Proprietor
Tim Huffman spent his earlier life as a professional musician. A classically trained concert pianist, he performed far and wide as a soloist, chamber musician and musical collaborator, and as a music educator for more than 40 years in the Columbus area. Sensing a new direction in 2017, he semi-retired from the world of music to open Timporium and has loved every minute of this new venture. By the way - one of his secondary loves is his trio of Mid-70s Cadillacs for which he has won several awards and accolades.
