August 27, 2018Antique Appraisers Road Show Sept. 15 & 16
Do you have a treasure in your attic? Are you curious to know its history or value? Then be sure to attend Antique Appraisers Road Show’s antiques and art discovery weekend September 15 and 16 at Schenectady Civic Playhouse, 12 South Church Street in Schenectady.
Bring your items for appraisal – paintings, posters, prints, toys, jewelry, silver, coins, military relics, oriental ceramics, jade and oriental art, rugs, tapestries, fabrics, sports, memorabilia, books, documents, photos. Or just come to observe the excitement. You’ll also benefit Civic Players’ Centennial Fund.
The event, Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm and Sunday from 12 noon to 4 pm, is open to the public. No appointment or admission fee. Just $5 for each item you choose to have evaluated, and Civic Players benefits from that fee. Expert appraisers help answer three important questions: What is the piece I own? What is the value? Where is the best place to sell antiques, art objects and collectibles?
Antique Appraisers Road Show experts, all independent art, antique, and collectibles authorities, include Robert Meringolo, former Sotheby’s associate, who is bringing a team of nationally and internationally recognized experts including former Sotheby’s and Christie’s appraisers.
The appraisers show was started in 2011 as a venue for local communities and smaller cities to have access to antiques, art, and collectibles experts. Since then thousands throughout New York have benefited from learning what their heirlooms are worth. Large and small discoveries have been made, to the delight of many owners.
