The AGG Volunteer Association is pleased to host eight knowledgeable appraisers to assess and evaluate your prized processions or unusual finds. Organized by Bert Dorpmans and Lauren Ogilvie of McMaster Fine Art, you are invited to bring your treasures and heirlooms to the Art Gallery of Guelph for an Antiques Roadshow-style event! Get on-the-spot verbal appraisals for jewelry, art, Inuit objects, textile art, and small furniture from the region’s experts.

Tickets are $15 per item, with each ticket representing one item for appraisal. Each person is welcome to bring multiple items in different categories, with a maximum number three items per category (see list below). For example, 5 five tickets for a total of $75 to bring 5 items (such as 3 textiles, 1 small stool, 1 necklace); purchasing 5 tickets for items in one category alone is not permitted.

Categories:

1. Jewelry and metalwork

2. Unframed or framed art and Canadiana

3. Inuit art or objects

4. Textile art

5. Small furniture, glassware and pottery
