Introduction to the World of Antiques (UW-Waukesha Continuing Education)

Feb. 13-Mar 06 2011 (Sundays)

Do you watch antique shows on TV?  Learn from an antiques expert when to use an appraiser and the challenging rules of collecting.  Visit local antique stores and have an eBay expert visit the class.  This class helps answer questions such as, "Is my old stuff valuable or just old?" Or, "Should I refinish or not?" And, "How can I tell if an antique is authentic, a reproduction or a fraud?"  This class is a whole educational experience!  Instructor Barbara J. Eash is a member of the Certified Appraisers Guild of America. She has extensive experience and is able to appraise a single item or an entire household. Barbara is also the coordinator for Milwaukee Public Television's annual Appraisal Fair.
