Greater Washington Area Historical Society's Annual Antique and Collectible Appraisal Fair is on Sunday, Sept. 26

The Greater Washington Area Historical Society's annual Antique and Collectible Appraisal Fair is on Sunday, September 26, from 12 noon to 4 p.m. at the Washington Historical Museum, 58230 Van Dyke, Washington, Michigan 48094. Event will be held outside, weather permitting. Masks are required.

Whether you have a family heirloom or an item purchased at a sale, the expert appraisers, LaVere and Zola Webster, will provide you with the opportunity to spend some time with an expert and learn not only the background of your item but also its value. The cost is $5.00 per item and you may bring as many items as you wish. The fee may be waived if it is determined an item is of little value. This is a perfect opportunity to find out what the “whatchma call it” you inherited really is.

All proceeds will go toward replacing the roof of the museum. The Society has been working very hard to raise the funds for this project for the past several years. With the help of the community and local businesses, the society is progressing towards its goal.

The Washington Historical Museum is located in the OLD 1916 Washington High School. The school operated from 1917 until 1972 when the new Washington Elementary School was completed. In 1975, the Greater Washington Area Historical Society was granted the old school to use as a Historical Society Museum. The Historical Society is a non-profit 501(c) (3) organization

See you soon someday at our favorite library!
