Chicken Alley is placing its holiday haul front and center for its first annual Thriftmas Holiday Shop.

Last spring a Chicken Alley Thrift Shop volunteer found an important work by Nigerian artist Ben Enwonwu among a large pile of donations. Last week the painting sold for $10,000 at a Sotheby's auction.

With less than two weeks to spare in the 2021-2022 fiscal year, Chicken Alley Thrift Shop surpassed one million dollars in sales for the first time.

During the pandemic Chicken Alley Thrift Shop is serving as a vital force in the community, offering used clothing and household items and raising money for Martha's Vineyard Community Services
