Times Vintage: Fashioning Support for the Arts
In the charming town of Greenport, there’s a store that not only stands out for its unique and eclectic offerings but also for its profound commitment to the local arts community. Times Vintage, a beloved local boutique known for its curated collection of vintage clothing and memorabilia, has become a cornerstone in supporting East End Arts through an innovative partnership that beautifully marries commerce with charity.
The Power of Partnership
During East End Arts’ critical fundraising initiative, “Give It Up for the Arts,” aimed at raising $90,000 in 90 days, Times Vintage has creatively stepped up to support the cause. In a delightful fusion of fashion and philanthropy, they have dedicated a special rack in their store labeled “Give It Up For The Arts.” Every item on this rack comes from donations or is specially selected by the store, and the proceeds from these sales go directly towards the fundraiser.
This initiative not only offers shoppers a chance to pick up unique vintage pieces but also contributes to a vibrant arts community. Purchasing from the “Art Supports” rack turns a simple act of shopping into a gesture of substantial support for the arts, highlighting how community and commerce can come together for a common good.
The success of this partnership serves as an inspiring model for other businesses looking to make a difference in their communities. Times Vintage shows that corporate support can extend beyond financial donations—integrating philanthropy into everyday business operations can create ongoing support for vital community resources like East End Arts.
We are calling on other local businesses to join us in this innovative approach to community engagement. Whether it’s allocating a portion of sales as donations, hosting fundraising events, or sponsoring arts programming, every contribution counts. Becoming a corporate partner with East End Arts means joining a network committed to nurturing and sustaining the cultural vibrancy of our community.
