The Afternoon originated in 1962 in Omaha, Nebraska as an art gallery with a few worldly goods. The name is a reflection of the original operating hours - it was only open in the afternoon. From the beginning the merchandise has been very special and unusual. Today, The Afternoon is more sophisticated carrying a variety of items such as jewelry, books, pottery, frames, cards, holiday, glass and barware just to name a few. Continuing to sell unique and wonderful items and to provide our customers with the pleasure of discovering them is extremely important to us. With new and exciting merchandise coming in everyday this is a stimulating place to shop.
