Carvin is Closing its Hollywood and Santa Ana Stores.
Carvin would like to offer the Factory Direct Experience to all of our customers. Come visit our factory showroom where all the latest products are unveiled and where all the magic happens. You might even bump into one of Carvin’s artists?
We will be closing our Hollywood & Santa Ana locations effective 4/26/14.
