Antique Appraisal Fair
Almost everyone has something, a family heirloom passed down from generation to
generation, an antique piece of jewelry, an auction purchase or even a garage
sale bargain that they have wondered what the age or value of the piece may be.
Many of us have been intrigued by the valuable surprises and sometimes
disappointments discovered on television shows like Antiques Roadshow. To bring
this excitement a little closer to home, the Athenaeum Rectory will be hosting
an antique appraisal fair on Saturday, March 29, 2008 from 9 am until 4 pm.
Knowledgeable appraisers from Nashville, Franklin, Hermitage and North Alabama
will be on site to give interesting facts and information about your family
heirlooms and yard sale treasures. The appraisal fee per item will be $10.
All proceeds will support and maintain the Rectory and the ongoing restoration
of the original Smith Family artifacts.
Join us in our efforts to support historic preservation by remembering the past
and treasuring the items that, with our heritage, made our homes and historical
landmarks homes.
For more information contact the Athenaeum Rectory at (931) 381-4822.
