Akron, if you are a vintage or retro junky or just appreciate the art of re-purposing, then the Bomb Shelter is the place you want to check out. They are your one-stop shop for anything and everything, from funky home decor, to amazing collector items, and more. Customers are instantly engaged by the organization and colorful displays. The store is structured by theme, each section being very different and creative from the other. The most noticeable themes are the kitchen, camping, vinyl, living room, retro TVs, and military sections.
It’s a pleasant surprise to walk through each theme and see what has been reused or repurposed to fit varying needs. It’s obvious that the Bomb Shelter is a unique treasure to the Akron area and actively seeks to inspire the community to engage in creative thought.
