The Junior League Shop moved to Parklane Shopping Center in June, 2002. We are located on the lower level of the shopping center directly behind JoAnn's Fabrics. The Junior League Shop is a resale store specializing in men, women and children's gently used clothing. There is a modest housewares area for dishes, glasses, linens, towels and small appliances. And we boast a select consignment area of designer quality clothing for men, women and children and a small section for unique gifts. Store hours are 10-6 Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday; 10-8 Thursdays and 10-4 on Saturdays. We are closed Sunday and Monday.

The Junior League Shop is staffed basically by volunteers of the Junior League of Wichita. It is the principal fundraiser for the organization, whose proceeds are given back to the community through various philanthropic projects. Throughout the year numerous events are held at the store such as Dollar Days and Bag Day, which are held semi-annually, and Toy Tyme, held the first week in December, provides new and gently loved toys for children at an affordable price.

The Junior League Shop just celebrated its 70th birthday in October. Sponsored by the Junior League of Wichita, this resale shop began as a rummage sale in 1931. By 1932, the women of this organization had developed the concept to create a store that provided good used clothing at reasonable prices and set up shop on North Market. The very first name for the Junior League Shop was the Salvage Shop. By the late 40s, the business' name had been changed to the Thrift Shop and the shop had made three moves - all to larger spaces. Over the years, as with any business, the Junior League Shop has continued to evolve to provide quality merchandise and good customer service for our customers.
