The Annual Appraisal Fair is a major fundraising effort to benefit the museum.  Patterned after "Antiques Roadshow", our appraisers provide oral appraisals along with some historical context.  We also offer an opportunity to do a video as the guests leave so they can share their experience and the item(s) they had appraised.  Appointments are payable in advance.    11:30 am - 12:30 pm is reserved for the appraisers to enjoy their lunch.

Appraisers donating their time and expertise are Bradley Toombs and John Peregoy of Finders Keepers Estate Sales, as well as Sandra Perry of Perry Appraisal Services.  We will use the appointment program again this year.  The appraisal fees are:  $20 per item or $50 for three (3) items.

​

October 25th - The museum will open at 12:00 noon.
