Roadshow art valuation this Saturday

Horsham Regional Art Gallery will present a Roadshow Art Valuation Day on Saturday.

If your passion is art, then make sure you bring your treasures along for an appraisal.

Members of the public are welcome to bring up to two pieces of art, collectables and antiques to receive an informal verbal appraisal on their item. This is a public session so people are welcome to listen to the discussions about each item.

Registered valuer Simon Storey will conduct the event which runs from 10am to 3pm.

Mr Storey has 14 fields of expertise including international, Australian and Indigenous art and culture, natural and technological sciences.

The $5 per item donation goes towards purchasing artworks for the art gallery’s permanent collection.
