Arc thrift stores has its first location in the southwest metro
area at 8996 W. Bowles Ave., just west of Wadsworth Boulevard.
Arc provides a retail stop for used clothing, furniture and
household items, with more than 20,000 new items added every
week.
“Not only are we offering good shopping values in a tough
economy, but we have a good mission,” said Bruce Stahlman, CFO with
Arc.
Established as a nonprofit in 1963, Arc’s mission is to enhance
the lives of individuals with developmental disabilities and their
families, by providing funding to support related programs in
Colorado.
There are already 11 stores in the Front Range, and Stahlman
said the company is excited about the new locale.
“”Were very excited to be down there in an area we haven’t been
before,” he said. “We’re excited to get the message out about
developmental disabilities.”
A grand opening will be held Nov. 15.
BellaLu Home & Design is also opening its doors, at 9595 E.
County Line Road. Formerly Norwalk Furniture, the new store offers
complementary custom interior design and affordable furniture,
flooring, window treatments, accessories and a selection of custom
fabrics.
To celebrate the opening designer Michelle Lamb will lead a
number of discussions on design trends Nov. 13 and 14.
Both events are free but require advance reservations by calling
303-768-8700.
