SUMMARY:Glory\, Story\, or Sorry: An Appraisal Fair
DESCRIPTION:Presented with support by Oconomowoc Realty\, our beloved appraisal fair returns! This program will offer participants insight into their items’ significance. Some objects carry notable market value\, others are treasured for the stories and connections they embody\, and occasionally an item’s worth is more modest than expected. Yet each holds a place in someone’s history. This year’s appraisers bring expertise many areas including specialization in architecture\, art\, military artifacts\, furniture\, porcelain\, and American Indian artifacts. If an item is too large or heavy to bring to the museum\, appraisers can evaluate it from photographs. \n\n\nTickets are $8 per item for historical society members and $10 per item for non-members. Tickets available in advance or at the door. This event offers informal\, verbal appraisals by expert appraisers. No written appraisals will be provided\, and valuations are for informational purposes only. \nSave time – buy your tickets today!
