Every home has them — pieces of furniture, framed art, prints, photographs, jewelry, books and other things that just might be valuable.
Now the Museum of Ventura County is going to help people find the value of those items.
On July 23 the museum is inviting people to bring their treasures to Ventura, where auctioneers and appraisers from Bonhams & Butterfields will be on hand to give verbal auction estimates of the value of the pieces. The price is $10 per item for guests and $5 per item for museum members. There will be a limit of five items.
No appointments are being taken, and the appraisals are available on a first-come, first-served basis from 10 a.m. to noon and 1 to 3 p.m.
The museum is at 100 E. Main St. in downtown Ventura. For information, call 653-6715 or visit http://www.venturamuseum.org. All proceeds will benefit museum programs.
