Looking to amp up your wardrobe - and do some good at the same time? Check out BerkChique, happening this weekend at Ventfort Hall in Lenox. Racks open for First Dibs Shopping Party ticket holders on Friday, June 5, and for everyone else on June 6-7.

Event founder Vicki Bonnington and her team of fashionistas have curated a fabulous collection of designer clothes and accessories on sale at a fraction of their original price. The best part? Proceeds and clothing donations go to great nonprofits across Berkshire County (including EFC)!

You can find out more about the event and purchase tickets to the VIP early access party at berkchique.org. Happy shopping!
