Hanover Tavern Foundation is excited to announce its 7th Annual, one-of-a-kind Antiques at the Tavern event May 2- May 4!
Historic Hanover Tavern will host 21 hand-selected dealers offering for sale a variety of period furniture, ceramics, silver, pottery, jewelry, art, books, linens, folk art, and much more! It promises to be a fun and educational weekend. All proceeds from this event support Hanover Tavern Foundation.

The show opens Friday evening, May 2nd, with a reception for those guests who appreciate the opportunity for early shopping in a festive setting. There will be an open bar, hors d’oeuvres, and plenty of fun!

General admission begins Saturday, May 3rd, at 10:00 am.

From 10 am – 12 pm, Gordon Lohr, an expert in antique furnishings, artifacts, and architecture, will offer identification, evaluation, and appraisal sessions. To have an item reviewed, select the “Appraisal Ticket” option and pay now. Please note – your $10 Appraisal Ticket is NOT an entry ticket to the show. You must purchase the entry ticket of your choice, as well. Please email photos and all the information known about the object to ddeal@hanovertavern.org. This will enable Gordon to do research in advance of the show. There will be a sign-up sheet at the show for you to reserve a time slot.

At 5:30 pm, Gordon will lecture on “Metalware in Early American Homes” in the Bradley Theater. Lecture package tickets are available. He will be staying for dinner following the presentation. Lecture attendees are welcome to join us for dinner by making reservations at 804-537-5050.
