Heirloom Discovery Day

Thank you for supporting our recent Heirloom Discovery Day on Saturday, May 12, 2012.

The Kelowna Art Gallery was pleased to welcome Anthony Westbridge of Westbridge Fine Arts in Vancouver, and local art and antiques appraiser, Peter Blundell, for an Heirloom Discovery Day.  Individuals wishing to learn the value of their art, antiques, and collectibles made appointments to see one of these experts.

Fifteen-minute interviews were held throughout the day from 10 am to 5 pm (no appointments will be booked between 1 and 2 pm). The cost for a session was $35.00 for Kelowna Art Gallery members, and $50.00 for non-members. Each session allowed for viewing of up to three items, subject to the time constraint.  Partial proceeds from this event supported the Kelowna Art Gallery’s educational programs and exhibitions.

Stay tuned for details about our next Heirloom Discovery Day.
