Did you know that by buying antiques and vintage items at Midtown Mercantile (4443 E Speedway, Tucson AZ) you can help support two local animal rescue organizations?  

Hope Animal Shelter maintains their booth on our main floor.  Since 2006, HOPE Animal Shelter has provided a no-kill, cage-free haven for abandoned dogs and cats while they await adoption. It offers a clean, loving environment that allows socialization and a smoother transition into a permanent home. HOPE ensures that their animals are well cared for both emotionally and physically during this trying time in their lives.

In the southeast corner of our north warehouse you’ll find TUCSON CARES booth filled with charming items from Kismet, the volunteer run vintage wares outlet for Tucson CARES. Tucson Cares (Companion Animal Rescue, Education and Support) is a grass-roots, 100% volunteer-driven animal welfare 501(c)3 that goes beyond rescue and adoption into other elements of the no-kill model, of which they are passionate advocates. They are whole-heartedly dedicated to ‘saving the savable’ and ‘treating the treatable’ animals of Pima County.

So come on in. Buy some treasures for your home. And help save and bring comfort to Tucson’s needy cats and dogs.

Tucson Modernism Week is upon us! Here at Midtown the annual Gala will be on Friday, October 11 from 5 to 8 PM. The ten-day modernism market being hosted by Midtown Mercantile merchants goes on from Oct. 4 – Oct. 13. Midtown is a designated affiliate of the Tucson historical preservation foundation. The market will feature Mid Century Modern vendors from around the country offering a curated selection of fine vintage MCM furniture and decor. 

Of course, we believe that the 10 day Modernism Market is the highlight of Tucson Modernism Week, but there are a lot of other modernist things going on all over Tucson. Lectures, tours, etc.  The 2018 home tour was wonderful. Here are some photos. Enjoy the modernism!

 

See you at the market!
