"Appraisal Event" hosted by Heritage Auctions Specialists at Museum in Auburn Hills - Free

[Guest museumsheri]

I believe your local chapter has visited our museum in Auburn Hills in the past. I'd like to invite you to tour our museum one last time before it goes to auction. We are located at 8550 Auburn Ct. Auburn Hills, MI 48326. Our hours are Mon-Thurs 9am-4pm up to May 15. From May 15th-May 27 we are open every day 9am-5pm. We are closed Memorial Day weekend.

A special upcoming event is our "Appraisal Event" hosted by 3 appraisers who regularly appear on "Antiques Roadshow." This event will be held at The Glenn Reid Museum on May 15-17. Call for hours. Each day is a little different. Just like the PBS show, these appraisers will value up to 2 of your personal treasures. This is a free, public event.

You can see a video of our collection on our website and find details about upcoming events like the "Appraisal Event" at www.reidff.org.

Not specified above but the post is talking about The Museum Bronze, an amazing place which was created by an amazing person, Glenn Reid who passed away last year.

I've been there a couple times and its well worth the visit if you haven't had an opportunity to see it previously.

Yes, Carfreak, Museum Bronze is the name of our museum. The reason I don't mention it is because we have had to change it for the auction. It's a bit confusing since we don't really have many bronzes in the collection! LOL! Now, we are calling it The Glenn Reid Museum Collection.

Thanks for posting the photos. I sure hope you enjoyed your visit and will come one more time before we close. I also appreciate your kind words about my dad. He was amazing to me, too (but, I'm a little biased!)

With Gratitude, Sheri Reid
