Family-owned discount boutique LiquidNation has entered into a partnership to sell items donated to Clark County Adventist Community Services’ The Center.

The boutique will split the profits on marked items with the charity, according to LiquidNation owner Jullienne Adams.

LiquidNation offers a variety of thrifted clothing, home decor and toys, along with work by 14 local artists, at 717 Grand Blvd. Adams said the partnership with The Center will entail mostly department store and designer clothes.

“It’s a way to do consignment merchandising for them so they don’t have to open their own store,” Adams said.

The Center, 3114 E. Fourth Plain Blvd., provides support to those in the area in need of food, clothing and household items. Kathy Anderson, director of The Center’s clothing department, said proceeds from items sold at the boutique will be used to purchase supplies such as toiletries, sleeping bags and clothes for the homeless.

“It just kind of helps the budget to partner with someone who will sell the extra stuff we have,” Anderson said. “Now we’ll be able to make a little extra space for income for the homeless.”

The partnership marks a milestone for the 2-year-old consignment boutique.

“This is our first community partnership,” Adams said. “I’m looking forward to building more relationships in the community.”
