Antiques
Roadshow - Sat, October 13, 2007
Our own friendly version of the Antiques Roadshow
in the Kingston Parish Hall with expert Kevin Bond
and lots of Kingston Peninsula Hospitality! Do you
have a family heirloom or a flea market find that
has you burning with curiosity? Or maybe you're planning
to find something perfect next Saturday morning and
bring it along before it's even hit your living room!
$10 will get you an informal appraisal of one item
(or $25 for three) and tea and sweets to enjoy while
you admire everyone else's treasures. Ferry ride and
beautiful fall scenery are free. Proceeds support
the Anglican Parish of Kingston outreach ministries

Peninsula
Heritage Inc. meets every third Thursday,
February through to June (we use that meeting as the
opening of the summer gallery show!). Then we re-group,
meeting September through December (which we use as
our Christmas party).
Peninsula Heritage Inc. operates the Heritage Garden,
the John Fisher Memorial Museum, and the 1810 Carter
House. The John Fisher Memorial Museum is a collection
of about 2000 peninsula artifacts, items either made/used/
on the peninsula. The collection is housed in the
permanent collection area down the stairs of the Macdonald
Consolidated School. The 1810 Carter House also operates
as a tea room and gift shop. We are also involved
in other projects such as the heritage designation
of the intersection as Kingston Historic District,
and the heritage signage.
