Le Thrift @ West Fest

Summer 2014 isn't over yet but I think it's fair to say that West Fest Chicago will be making the highlight reel of Chicago's 2014 summer fests. In its 10th year, the annual festival is as eclectic as West Town itself featuring a DJ Stage, Kid Fest, Pet Fest, live bands, artisan vendors and more. People flocked to Chicago Avenue between Damen and Wood in droves and enjoyed the sights and sounds of West Town's fashion, eats and music over the July 12th & 13th weekend.

Located just off the DJ stage, Le Thrift Consignment Boutique was serenaded by some of Chicago's hottest DJ's with glorious, heart-pumping house music. The lovely ladies of Maash Boutique and LEI by Leilani also joined the party with their pop-up shops at Le Thrift.

A special treat for both Le Thrift and West Festers alike was the Fresh Lemonade stand operated by the cutest daughters of Team Le Thrift and Maash Boutique. Congrats to the girls for successfully selling out of their thirst-quenching drinks!

It's nice to note that the $5 donation requested for entry to West Fest offsets the event production costs and to benefit the West Town Chamber of Commerce (a non-profit 501 C6 serving the community), and 10% of net proceeds are donated to Talcott Fine Arts and Museum Academy a local elementary school. Talcott parents volunteer and plan the Kid Fest area and 100% of Kid Fest area activities benefit the school.
