5.     Miriam’s Attic to Open Select Saturdays

Miriam’s Attic is pleased to announce that it will open one Saturday each month from 10 am – 1 pm from April to October. The shop will be open the first Saturday of the month except in July, which will be the 2nd Saturday of the month because of the July 4th holiday.  Susan Olson, Fund Development Coordinator at The Osborn, stated that “our customers are always asking when we will open on Saturdays.  We accommodated their requests by opening on more Saturdays this year. We hope it will be easier for more people to shop with us.”

Miriam’s Attic, which is staffed by volunteers, is open to the public every Tuesday year-round and features quality furniture, household and kitchen items, women’s jewelry, scarves, and handbags plus much, much more.  Miriam’s Attic opened in December 2008 to benefit The Osborn’s Charity Care Program which serves those who move to The Osborn with little or no ability to pay for their stay as well as those who have outlived their resources due to illness or advanced age.  The Charity Care Program also enables members of the community with little or no ability to pay for their care to receive services from Osborn Home Care.
