The 43rd Annual Connecticut Spring Antiques Show (CSAS) returns to the beautiful Hartford State Armory on March 19 and 20, 2016. The show features over 60 of New England’s and the nation’s most respected antiques dealers of pre-1840 American furniture and decorative objects.

This year, in order to provide a wider selection of outstanding and unique objects, the CSAS is showcasing folk art to complement the early American pieces and accessories.

Serious collectors of early American furniture and decorative arts have long known that the CSAS is the best antiques show in New England. Adding to its importance is the show’s growing focus on young and new collectors. In order to attract this audience, visitors age 35 and younger will receive free admission to the show on Sunday, March 20. Several of the free educational programs offered during the show are sure to be of interest to new and young collectors.

General admission is $15 per person. In addition to the dealers and educational programs, there will be a catered tea room on site. Free, secure parking is available both days.

Additional information about the CSAS is available at www.ctspringantiquesshow.com or on our Facebook page CT Spring Antiques Show.
