Darien Antiques Show at First Congregational Church March 2-4

In this age of eBay and the Internet, there’s something satisfying about a traditional antiques show where one can touch, feel and inspect the merchandise before making a purchasing decision.

The Darien Antiques Show, featuring a wide selection of fine American, English and oriental furniture; paintings; silver; jewelry; prints; pottery and decorative accessories from more than 30 hand-picked American dealers, will return to the First Congregational Church of Darien March 2-4.

The show raises funds for local nonprofit organizations, including Person-to-Person, the Domestic Violence Crisis Center, the George Washington Carver Community Center and St. Luke's Life Works.

This year, for the first time, photos of the merchandise will be posted on the Darien Antiques Show website immediately after the preview party.
