cornellstoreThe new Cornell Store in the Shops at Ithaca Mall will be holding a grand opening celebration on Saturday, April 19 from 10:00am – 9:00pm. After operating in a temporary location in the mall, The Cornell Store now has a new permanent store on a main corridor.

The Cornell Store at The Shops at Ithaca Mall features high quality apparel and gift items celebrating Cornell University. In contrast to the store’s location on campus, the store at the mall offers many conveniences, including extensive free parking, evening and weekend hours, and proximity to other retailers the community values. The store will be open during the mall’s open hours.

During the grand opening event on April 19, a free Cornell water bottle will be available to the first 500 people who visit the store. The store will open earlier in the week, but the celebration itself will be on Saturday, from 10:00am – 9:00pm.

“We’re very pleased to be operating a store in the Shops at Ithaca Mall,” said Pat Wynn, director of The Cornell Store. “We received incredibly positive feedback to the temporary Cornell Store we offered in the mall last year, and are excited to provide a great selection and convenience for the community, visitors, and all fans of the Big Red.”
