The opening of the 48,000-square-foot store will begin at 8:45 a.m. with a ribbon cutting. 

"It is a pleasure to bring Art Van Furniture's incredible selection of quality home furnishings to families in the Algonquin community," said Kim Yost, Art Van CEO. "We are thrilled at the opportunity to continue to grow our reputation for stylish and affordable home pieces while adding jobs and enhancing our footprint across the vibrant Chicagoland area. We look forward to playing an active role in the community and help guests create the home of their dreams."

The retailer hired 45 people in a number of full-time and part-time positions.

Currently, Art Van has nine other locations in the Chicago market and plans for another store to open in Schaumburg, Ill., in September.
