Shoppers and home cooks in Lafayette have reason to get excited as the Assistance League Thrift Shop gears up for its highly anticipated annual Cookware and Kitchen Event beginning Tuesday, June 3. Located next to the Park Theater, the shop opens its doors at 10 a.m., but eager shoppers are encouraged to arrive by 9:45 a.m. to beat the crowd.

This community-favorite event will feature an impressive lineup of gently used and new kitchenware from premium brands including Sur La Table, Anolon, Calphalon, Cuisinart, Keurig, and the ever-popular Le Creuset. Inventory highlights include stock pots, baking pans, frying and saucepans, buffet glass serving dishes, toasters, coffeemakers, and complete dish sets. Prices are budget-friendly, ranging from just $2 to $35, making it an ideal destination for bargain hunters and aspiring chefs alike.

The selection is curated by dedicated member volunteers and offers a great opportunity to update your kitchen while supporting a worthy cause. Standout items include a Keurig coffee maker, Le Creuset baking dish, candlestick sets, and dishware perfect for entertaining. Whether you're a collector of fine cookware or simply looking to refresh your kitchen tools, this event delivers exceptional variety and value. If inventory remains after the first week, a 50% off sale is scheduled for Tuesday, June 10, starting again at 10 a.m. The second round is often when returning shoppers score hidden gems missed the first time around.

Proceeds from all purchases directly support 12 hands-on programs that improve lives throughout the Diablo Valley community. From clothing children to supporting seniors, each dollar spent goes toward meaningful outreach. To learn more about how your shopping supports local causes, visit assistanceleague.org/diablo-valley.
