Dallas' most beloved home-decor shopping event now has its own home: Dwell with Dignity has purchased a new building in the Dallas Design District that will host the nonprofit's annual Thrift Studio, plus additional events, fundraisers, and programming.

The organization says in a release that the building - at 1833 E. Levee St. - will allow them to further their mission to transform lives by providing and installing interiors for family homes and community spaces. It will serve as a permanent home for the group's largest fundraiser, Thrift Studio, which, in 2023, will take place from late August to early October.

“It’s always been a part of our vision to give Thrift Studio a permanent home to serve as an anchor for our programming and fundraising efforts,” says Ashley Sharp, executive director of Dwell with Dignity, in the release. “Last year, we had our most successful Thrift Studio to date, and the event and the generosity of our supporters have been integral to our mission."

Held annually as a pop-up event, Thrift Studio features luxuriously furnished vignettes designed by North Texas’ leading designers, showrooms, and retailers, as well as a selection of fine art from dozens of prestigious artists. All of the high-end home décor items and original artwork on display are available for shoppers to purchase at deep discounts, with 100 percent of proceeds benefiting Dwell with Dignity.

The charity then provides complete home interiors for deserving recipients, including single mothers and those escaping poverty, homelessness, trauma, and domestic abuse. Since 2019, the nonprofit also has been lending their design services to help to transform community spaces.

With a new permanent location, Dwell with Dignity will be able to expand its reach and offer smaller Thrift Studio pop-ups throughout the year, the organization says. They also plan to host events and programs, extending partnerships to other nonprofits, local artists, designers, like-minded brands, and more.

"We’re thrilled to provide more opportunities to connect with our supporters while also connecting them with other incredible nonprofits in the Dallas-Fort Worth region," Sharp says. "We are committed to providing a space for nonprofits to showcase themselves and be a part of the Dwell with Dignity journey.”

One more exciting note for up-and-coming designers, marketers, and business students: With the purchase of the new building, Dwell with Dignity applied and was selected to work with graduate and undergraduate students at the University of Texas at Dallas as part of their capstone project, the release says. The nonprofit will work with two classes of students who will assist with marketing and supply chain/logistics management for the new building and Thrift Studio.
