Folsom Historical Society’s 17th  Annual Antique Evaluation Day is to be held on Historic Sutter Street, Folsom, Saturday, September 6

Antiques enthusiasts bring their family treasures and garage sale finds to Folsom for informal evaluation and identification.

An impressive team of volunteer appraisers, covering a wide range of specialties, offer collectors a unique opportunity to learn more about their antiques and collectibles.
