Do you have a treasure in your attic...?  Have you ever wondered about the value of a treasured family heirloom, unusual collection or special garage sale find? 

You can find out what it's worth at the Skinner Antiques Appraisal Day, with Skinner Appraisers Stuart Whitehurst and Christopher Barber, on Saturday, October 30, 10am-3pm at the Gibbs Center, 41 Foster Street in Arlington, home of the Arlington Center for the Arts and the Kelliher Center.

Skinner's renowned appraisers will give verbal appraisals on up to three items per person.  There is a fee of $10 per piece or $25 for three, with a maximum of three pieces per person.

 

Tickets are available at the door only, with first-come, first-served.  There will be a seated waiting area, live music and refreshments.
