Support the independent voice of Miami and help keep the future of New Times free.
Lotus House Thrift (203 NW 36th St., Miami) is a Wynwood extension of Overtown's Lotus House Women's Shelter. It is a thrift shop that specializes in selling clothes, furniture, electronics, and household goods to help fund shelter meals, housing, health services, job training, and more. I bought a Sony amp there for $10. Check 'em out.
Here's video of some ladies from Lotus House singing "Lean On Me" at last Saturday's grand opening. Log on to lotushouseshelter.org/thrift.html for more info.
Keep Miami New Times Free... Since we started Miami New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Miami, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Miami with no paywalls.
