Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
We’ve been known to marathon reality shows like Storage Wars, Pawn Stars, and American Pickers because it’s fascinating to see what people are willing to spend big money on: Hot Wheels wrapped in plastic, golf clubs, and weird old swords. It’s more fascinating yet when these bidders hawkishly home in on items, dollar signs in their eyes, because they already know how much moolah that random Felix The Cat knick-knack is worth.
For Antiques Roadshow art appraiser Alasdair Nichol, there’s a little more nuance involved. During his free talk, “Adventures in the Arts Market,” he’ll impart tales from his experiences at the PBS standby and discuss his approach to appraising artwork in the current market. Pick up a few pro tips at Phoenix Art Museum, 1625 North Central Avenue, at 7 p.m. Wednesday, March 20.
