September 13-14, 2019
Presented by A Simple Life magazine, this two-day event features the finest selection of 18th and 19th century antiques from over 60 of the nation’s preeminent dealers.
“With the 65-acre Museum of Appalachia as a backdrop, attendees will see thousands of early American artifacts in their natural setting, and then will have the opportunity to purchase similar items from some of the best antique dealers in the country,” said Museum President, Elaine Meyer.
The event also features mountain music, Revolutionary and Civil War encampments, and traditional craftsmen demonstrating pioneer skills. Guests will enjoy activities such as sawmilling, blacksmithing, sorghum making, spinning, weaving, and more.
“The Museum of Appalachia is the purest museum of its kind. It is everything we antique dealers love,” said Jill Peterson, publisher of A Simple Life magazine and nationally-known dealer and purveyor of primitive antiques.
Admission to the Antique Show includes a tour of the Museum mountain farm and village, which contains 36 historic log structures, exhibit halls filled with thousands of Appalachian artifacts, gardens, and free-range farm animals.
