Antiquefest at Long Branch

More than 200 dealers from around the country and Canada are expected to unpack their trunks this weekend for the Great American Antiquefest at Long Branch Park.

The show also features food and pickup services for bulky items, so patrons don’t have to carry their purchases around the grounds.

On Sunday, there will be antiques appraisals by expert and syndicated radio host Harry Rinker. The appraisals will be conducted from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., and the cost is $3 or two items for $5. Proceeds benefit the Children’s Reading Program.

$6 for single day; $7 for both days; $20 for early bird special which includes a weekend pass; 12 and younger, free.
