Evaluators scheduled for the event include Brady Dreasher, Denice Morris and Emily Miller of Art of Estates; Mark Buckley of the toy depot; Tim Bulloch of Sparkle Jewelry; Stephen Gleissner, art and antiques appraiser; and Phil Martinez of Phil’s Coins.

People can show up and pay $ 10 at the door to attend the fair. People can still show up and pledge to bring an item for $ 125; two items for $ 175, or three items for $ 225. They will meet with a reviewer for each article and get a preview of the article.

“We are happy to sponsor an event that celebrates art, history, culture and more. We’ve had a tremendous response from the community and can’t wait to see some amazing antiques, ”said Victor Hogstrom, President and CEO of PBS Kansas.

The Wichita-Sedgwick County Historical Museum offers passes to all attendees, and Tanya’s Soup Kitchen provides food for assessors, volunteers and staff. In addition, the following organizations will have exhibits: the Midwest Historical & Genealogical Society; the Asian Association of Wichita; the Wichita Gem & Mineral Society; and the Wichita Weavers, Spinners & Dyers Guild. There will also be a tabletop Arcade Challenge with prizes provided by The Burrow. And, when you’re hungry, check out the U-Hungry Food Truck, which will be on site from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
