Art Effect Boutique Celebrates 40 Years in Lincoln Park

Art Effect, the beloved boutique nestled in the heart of Lincoln Park at 934 W. Armitage Avenue, is thrilled to announce its 40th anniversary celebration. Founded by Esther Fishman in 1984, Art Effect has been a cornerstone of the community, offering unique and curated shopping selections that have captivated shoppers for four decades. In a sea of ‘big box’ retailers that now line the sidewalks of Armitage, Art Effect is a true treasure for Chicago residents and tourists alike.

To mark this significant milestone, Art Effect is hosting a day filled with excitement, gratitude, and celebration. Transport to the bustling markets of Marrakech as you browse the store’s eclectic offerings and shop items Esther and Sibylle brought back from their travels to Morocco. From 10 AM to 6 PM on June 8th, customers can enjoy a fun day of shopping and treats designed to thank the loyal patrons who have supported the boutique over the years.

Event Highlights:

• Hourly Giveaways: Every hour, a $50 gift card will be raffled off, providing lucky customers the chance to indulge in their favorite items from the boutique.
• Cheers with Prosecco: Raise a glass of prosecco to celebrate this milestone. Complimentary prosecco will be served throughout the day, adding a touch of sparkle to the festivities.
• Exclusive Art Effect Moroccan baskets: The first 25 customers who spend $150 or more will receive a commemorative mini tote basket, a stylish and functional memento of this special occasion.

“We are incredibly grateful to our loyal customers and the Lincoln Park community for their unwavering support over the past 40 years,” said Esther Fishman, owner of Art Effect, who operates the store with her partner, Sibylle Gander. “This celebration is not just about our anniversary; it’s about honoring the relationships we’ve built and the vibrant community that has embraced us. We are proud to be a women-owned, small business and look forward to continuing to serve and grow with our amazing customers.”

Art Effect invites everyone to join in the festivities, enjoy the unique shopping experience, and celebrate the spirit of shopping locally and supporting small businesses.
