Flag Day, Wednesday, June 14

Retailer's 12 Chicagoland locations to ensure dignified disposal based on U.S. Flag Code guidelines

WARREN, Mich. - June 8, 2017 // PRNewswire // - A Flag Day salute to the red, white and blue! Art Van Furniture will invite Chicagoland families to turn in tattered or torn Old Glories on Wednesday, June 14 from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., and receive new 3-by-5-foot American flags to display proudly and patriotically. The American-built company will ensure the old flags are respectfully disposed of in accordance with the U.S. Flag Code.

"Home is where the heart is, and the American flag represents the heart of every American's shared home, our great country," said Kim Yost, CEO of Art Van Furniture. "Every day, Art Van Furniture helps Chicagoland families beautify their homes. On this Flag Day, we want America's enduring symbol of freedom to look bright and beautiful as it waves from front porches and backyards from Naperville to Merrillville, Bedford Park to Orland Park, and everywhere in between."

Art Van Furniture's 12 Chicagoland stores are in Algonquin, Batavia, Bedford Park, Chicago (Elston Avenue), Downers Grove, Glendale Heights, Merrillville, Naperville, Orland Park, Schaumburg, Woodridge and Portage, Ind.
