Are Your Antiques Worth a Small Fortune? Here's How to Find Out!

Art and Antique Appraisal Day
Thursday November 17, 10 a.m - 4 p.m at Vernon Public Art Gallery

Have you ever wondered if that old antique you have stored away is worth anything?  Or what about that piece of artwork that has been in your family for years and no one really knows much about it?  This is your chance to unravel these mysteries!

Join us at Vernon Public Art Gallery for Art & Antique Appraisal Day on Thursday November 17th from 10 a.m to 4 p.m with Peter Blundell of Blundell Art and Antique Appraisals.  Book your session today by calling 250-545-3173 or email laura at vernonpublicartgallery.com<mailto:laura at vernonpublicartgallery.com>

Bring your antiques and/or artworks to the Gallery and let Peter reveal information about the artist, age, origin, value and so much more. Up to three items permitted per 15-minute booking, $40/members, $50/non-members (+tax) per session, with part proceeds going to the VPAG. Pre-registration is required and space is limited. Please call 250-545-3173 to register. (Pocket watches and swords are permitted but Peter will not assess jewelry, guns, stamps, coins, or wrist watches).

Spectators are welcome, come see what sorts of items people bring in and learn what Peter has to say about each item and what the estimated value is. Theatre style seating will be set up for anyone who wishes to watch the appraisals.
