Thursday is for the Designers with a Heart of Gold

For the living rooms in need of a refresh and a conscience that loves a win, we’ve found your weekend plans at the intersection of high style and local impact.

The Green Chair Project is hosting its “Shop for Good” event on Friday, June 5, 2026, offering a curated treasure trove of designer furniture and home decor. While the shopping is top-tier, the mission is the real draw: proceeds help provide beds and essentials to the more than 6,000 children in Wake County currently sleeping without a bed of their own.

For the serious hunters who want to beat the Friday crowds, the Preview Party on Thursday evening is the move. A $25 ticket nets you first dibs on the best pieces, plus snacks and drinks to fuel your furniture scouting. It’s the rarest of Raleigh opportunities: snagging a one-of-a-kind find while ensuring a local family finally has a place to call home.

📍 The Green Chair Project – 1853 Capital Blvd., Raleigh, NC 27604
📅 Thursday, June 4, 2026 (5–7 p.m.) | Friday, June 5, 2026 (10 a.m.–4 p.m.)
💰 Thursday Preview: $25 | Friday Shopping: Free

Go ahead and clear some space in the SUV now. You’re shopping for a cause, which basically makes that new accent chair a charitable tax strategy, right?
