Larchmont Avenue Church’s Annual Rummage Sale
A time-honored tradition, Larchmont Avenue Church’s Annual Rummage Sale is eagerly awaited and robustly attended. For over 30 years, the sale has attracted thousands of donations and almost an equal number of shoppers. It is a thrifter’s paradise where treasures can be found on the clothing racks and in the toy bins. Dazzling jewelry and fabulous housewares line the tables. There is something for everyone and as our repeat customers tell us “I am never disappointed.” Priced to please, our items find their way to new homes each year.
The sale is the ultimate in doing good! It provides items for families across the Sound Shore whose budgets might be stretched. It raises funds supporting LAC’s community outreach via grants passed along to our local mission partners. It is the pinnacle of earth care as items are rescued from landfills and are recycled and reimagined! It is a fun day out with friends or family to connect with the community as you search for special treats and treasures.
