LINCOLN
The
Hanger along with the Witz End Boutique will celebrate their grand
opening on March 3rd 2018 at 616 Broadway Street in Lincoln, IL
historic downtown.
The Hanger (formerly Old 2 New Thrift Store) will provide a fresh
new resale shopping experience spanning close to 10,000 square feet.
Shoppers will find a wide variety of clothes, housewares, décor,
antiques, furniture, and more.
The Witz
End Boutique will be housed inside The Hanger and will offer an
assortment of boutique, vintage, and designer items. Witz End is
named in honor of the former Witzig retail store that was at the
same location on the square during the 1970’s. Shoppers will also be
able to make purchases online.
The Hanger will also serve as a hub for several of CAPCIL’s economic
development programs in Logan County. These programs include job and
skills training through the Hand Up Project and Strengthening
Working Families Initiative, supplemental income programs, volunteer
opportunities, and apprenticeship placement with local businesses.
The Hanger and the Witz End Boutique will host a grand opening event
on Saturday March 3rd. Door prizes, giveaways, and various specials
will go throughout the entire day. The store will remain open during
the month of February while undergoing construction to prepare for
the grand opening.
