If you need help, and everyone does at some point in life, they will do absolutely everything in their power to help you.”

“I visited with my team to discuss how we can help fundraise/volunteer, and walking into that building was like being transported to another world! I realized I hadn’t seen a children’s book in 20 years and it was so euphoric to see how they’d evolved to be so inclusive and diverse in so many ways. It’s amazing to see an organization that intentionally curates a selection that will inspire children from all walks of life. I am astounded by the energy and passion from every member I met, and I look forward to helping the cause in any ways I can!”

“We adopted two beautiful, adorable kittens named Oliver and June from here. The adoption process went very fast and smoothly. Their foster mom, Bridget, was very sweet and receptive to answering any questions we had; we could really see that these two kittens were well cared for by both Bridget and the organization. Highly recommend.”

“Great experience!! I signed up for a build-a-bike class but when I showed up they didn’t have a frame ready to build that would suit my needs, but they did have a newly tuned up bike that WAS exactly what I was looking for and was a very reasonable $200 and it even came with a front basket already installed. I am very happy with my experience at Freewheel and will recommend to all my friends! The guy working was very helpful and friendly!”

“I recently went here with one of my friends who is losing her vision. The entire staff is super amazing and they have a really cool old building. As my friend had questions about her cell phone, we met with Jim, the computer guy. He was super helpful and has a great sense of humor. My friend was initially really hesitant about coming here. Jim's easy going personality and the comfortable method he used to convey knowledge helped her relax and get the information she needed. I wish everyone was as knowledgeable and caring as Jim was during this appointment. She can now read my text messages thanks to the information Jim provided. The Council also has a great store full of terrific items which can help people who are losing vision. The store guy was Greg and he gave us a tour of all the products and was full of answers when my friend had questions. He even told us about a couple of items they could special order if necessary. Again, he was easy going and conveyed what he knew in a thoughtful and respectful manner. I can't say enough positive things about this organization. They are really good people who have a ton of knowledge to assist people who are losing sight. I highly recommend checking them out if you or someone in your life is in need of their services.”

“Unfortunately I arrived an hour before close so I wasn't able to get thru it all. Id like to comment on the cleanliness of the store, the impeccable organization skills, I was impressed the minute I walked in. It felt more like a small boutique than a thrift store because it is so well maintained. Friendly staff, good choice of music ? and very reasonable prices. I've never had a more efficient trip to a thrift store, I will definitely be back!!”

“My recent experience with this store was a very good one. What made this experience so memorable was the interaction I had with Ms. Ellen. Ms. Ellen has a very calm personality which is an excellent skill given the chaos you’ll experience with the management team.In my experience, I felt like I was chasing after answers but no one knows what’s going on. Ms. Ellen on the other hand, looked at the situation, and calmly took control. Many thanks to her and other employees like this.”

“We held my 7 year old's birthday party at the Arts Center and had a fantastic experience. They designed a custom art activity based on my child's interests and age. The instructor was fantastic leading the kids through the activity (and keeping my lone 4year old busy). Parents were able to drop off their kids and get an 1 to 1 1/2 to themselves, and the Center even provided a small gift bag for my child.Best of all was the way they handled a the eventual rescheduling of our party due to weather. When a snow storm was predicted, we kept in close communication about if we would need to reschedule the party and they were very flexible in helping us find a new date and time for her party.I can't recommend Monroe St. Arts Center enough!”
