Come to the Great Lawn at Bartow-Pell for a market treasuring hunting experience, and perhaps take home a piece of local history!
The mansion is cleaning out cabinets and clearing closets, getting ready for an extensive Capital Renovation Project through the NYC Department of Parks Capital Division. It’s an exciting time, and we’ve got work to do!
The Bartow-Brocante Market is looking for good homes for some recently deaccessioned collection pieces. For transparency, these pieces will be clearly marked as deaccessioned and sold at a fair market price with all proceeds restricted to the direct care of Bartow-Pell’s permanent collection and/or the acquisition of new pieces that align will the museum’s Collection Policy.
Bartow-Pell will also be offering some items from our non-accessioned collections, including our Teaching, Costumes, and Exhibitions Collections, as well as some reference books from our library. A few of these items will be free or at a very low cost. This is a great opportunity to own a piece of local history!
We’ll also have a table or two dedicated to community-donated treasures. If you are interested in contributing to Bartow-Pell’s Community Table, please email Bartow-Pell’s Museum Administrator, Susan Chesloff at schesloff@bpmm.org. We’ll be happy to acknowledge your donation!
