The 2010 Spring Antique Show at Georgian Place Shops & Office Village

SOMERSET, PENNSYLVANIA – May 27, 2010 – The grounds at Georgian Place were bustling during the Annual Spring Antique Show at Georgian held Saturday, May 22 and Sunday May 23, 2010. Now in its 8th year, this family friendly indoor/outdoor event featured over 75 vendors, offering a wide assortment of quality antiques, decorative arts, and collectibles ranging from the early 1800s to the retro 1950s. The show ran from 9am to 5pm on Saturday and 11am-4 pm on Sunday. The light rain didn’t keep the crowds away as attendance was estimated at over 5,000 for the weekend. According to John Greiner of Cottage Pine Antiques, “In my opinion this was the most successful spring antique show at Georgian Place yet”. Admission to the event was free. The village setting at Georgian Place was the perfect environment to stroll though and browse for something special. In addition to the antique show, there was a delicious assortment of homemade food available, and a variety of local live acoustic bands playing throughout each day on the courtyard lawn, sponsored by blubuaghsmusic.com. Also, a Car Cruise was held on Saturday sponsored by Classic Cruisers Car Club. Starting at noon, antique and classic cars were on display in the parking lot for car enthusiasts of all ages. With so much to see and do, a trip to the Georgian Place Antique Show is always a memorable day out and one you won’t want to miss next year!
