The New Bern Preservation Foundation’s 39th Annual Antique Show & Sale returns February 5–8, 2026, and all spaces filled for antique and vintage vendors!
Now, we’re seeking skilled restoration specialists and appraisers to join the show. This is a fantastic opportunity to connect with collectors and help our guests bring their beloved pieces back to life.
We’re especially looking for experts in:
- Furniture restoration (wood, caning, upholstery)
- Lighting
- Clock restoration
- Stained glass repair
- Plaster restoration
Our fan-favorite art restoration expert will be returning (you may remember him from our 2025 show!), and we’re excited to build another outstanding lineup of talent.
Appraisers will take part in our popular Antique Appraisal Sessions, where guests bring in timeless treasures to learn more about their value.
Want to join us or know someone who should? Email Lisa Ayn Setliff, Antique Show Chair.
