Art & Treasures – Celebrating 20 Years
2014 Art & Treasures Sale – June 12-15
submitted by Lois Sumberg, Gallery Council Member
Can you believe it! Rochester’s most prestigious garage sale, the 2014 Art & Treasures Sale will celebrate its 20th anniversary this year. I wasn’t here for the beginning, but I’m told it started out as Tuesday’s Treasures, a small, one day sale of mostly antiques and art. Twenty years later it’s still a sale of antiques and art, but so much more. Now you can rummage through four rooms of gently used antiques, artwork, jewelry, pottery, wood, china, silver, crystal, fine linens and furniture. Look for displays dedicated to gardening, kitchen gadgets, even Christmas.
On Thursday, June 12, $10 at the door gets you into our Early Bird Sale. Shop to your heart’s content from 6-8 pm and scoop up the best bargains the sale has to offer. Tapas with Max at the Gallery is available between 5 pm and 8 pm in the Gallery’s Pavilion.
The sale is then open to the public Friday, June 13 and Saturday, June 14, 10 am-4 pm and Sunday, June 15, noon-3 pm in Cutler Union. No admission charge! Sponsored by the Gallery Council of the Memorial Art Gallery, all sales benefit the Memorial Art Gallery.
Now would be a good time for some spring cleaning of your own and see if there is anything that you would like to donate. The Council will happily accept your tax-deductible donations (no clothing, please.) Interested in donating, now? Contact Mary Lisa Sisson.
Or, our organized donation drop off days are Tuesday, June 10 and Wednesday, June 11 from 10 am-4 pm; Thursday the 12th from 9 am-noon right here at Cutler Union at the MAG. We will have volunteers available to assist you with unloading.
