Renmark Consignment Shop

Turn both your house and a child's life around 180 degrees. Visit the new Renmark Consignment Shop in Church Hill (7 North 25th Street). Known for imaginative and original design, Renmark is adding a consignment shop to its retail space. Traditional, contemporary and sometimes eccentric goods to be found. (When we visited they even had an elephant trunk lamp!) Pay a visit if you're in the market for gently used home furnishings, and a percentage of sales will benefit ART 180.
