Attic Treasures 2018

Bring your collectibles, antiques and other treasures for expert review at the FREE 18th Annual Attic Treasures & Collectibles Event at the Main Library at Goodwood, 7711 Goodwood Blvd, from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. Saturday, October 27! It’s very similar to what you see on Antiques Roadshow, which runs on LPB TV.

 

This East African carved gourd vase was brought to last year’s Attic Treasures & Collectibles Event.

Hundreds of people lined up with their treasures at last year’s event, and everyone in the community is welcome. This is the time to raid your attic, cupboards, closets and garages for that interesting or antique art, old toys, pottery, jewelry, rifles, war artifacts, small furniture or other item of interest and see what the story is behind it and possibly more. There is a limit of three items per person at the event, and experts will be on hand to look at your collectibles and antiques.

Library staff will be available to demonstrate the use of the P4A Antiques Reference Database, frequently used by experts on Antiques Roadshow and available in-house and remotely to all patrons with an East Baton Rouge Parish Library card.

For more information about the 18th Annual Attic Treasures & Collectibles Event, call (225) 231-3740. You can find library resources on antiques and collectibles in our Antiques & Collectibles infoguide! To learn more about the Library and any of its other free programs, events and resources, visit our homepage.
