The plans are set, the dealers are signing up and are excited to be coming back to the Schoharie Valley Railroad Complex, 143 Depot Lane in the village of Schoharie. On Saturday, Sept. 28 from 10-5 and Sunday, Sept. 29 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. both days, Schoharie Colonial Heritage Association (SCHA) will host its 48th annual fall antique show. Admission is $6
Antique dealers from Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire and New York will bring quilts and blankets, jewelry, antique furniture, stoneware, oriental rugs, glass and china, baskets and bowls, and collectibles of every kind. Special heritage crafters have also been invited — the broom maker, the candle maker, the potter, the candy lady and more.
The Schoharie Valley Railroad Complex backdrop is unique to visitors. The Railroad Museum’s 1865 Station House and 1891 passenger car of the Middleburgh & Schoharie Railroad will be open to the public. The freight shed, which houses railroad memorabilia including a restored 1917 Delaware & Hudson Railway caboose, will also be open to show-goers.
The cooks of SCHA have a scrumptious selection of picnic items and homemade desserts for those who want lunch under the picnic tent.
Proceeds from the antique show will fund the ongoing historic activities of the Schoharie Colonial Heritage Association.
There is plenty of free parking. Call for further information: 518-295-7505.
